A wooden cylinder of diameter $4 r$, height $h$ and density $\frac{\rho}{3}$ is kept on a hole of diameter $2 r$ of a tank, filled with water of density $\rho$ as shown in the figure. The height of the base of cylinder from the base of tank is H .

Let the cylinder is prevented from moving up, by applying a force and water level is further decreased. Then, the height of water level ( $h_2$ in the figure) for which the cylinder remains in original position without application of force is
