Question

Example: A single column manometer is connected to a pipe containing a liquid of S.G. 0.9 as shown in Fig. Find the pressure in the pipe if the area of the reservoir is 100 times the area of the tube for the manometer reading shown in Fig. The specific gravity of mercury is 13.6

Step 1

G.) of 0.9. The manometer uses mercury (with a specific gravity of 13.6) to measure the pressure in the pipe. The area of the reservoir is 100 times the area of the tube. We need to find the pressure in the pipe based on the manometer reading. Show more…
