Question

The left side of the manometer is open to the atmosphere (1.01 × 105 Pa) and the right side contains a gas with a gauge pressure of −50 Pa. The left side has a fluid with density 898 kg/m3. The remainder of the manometer has water(1000 kg/m3). The top fluid level is the same on both sides. What is the height of the column of low density fluid?(1) 5.0 cm(2) 10 cm(3) 15 cm(4) 20 cm

Step 1

Given: Atmospheric pressure, \( P_0 = 1.01 \times 10^5 \, \text{Pa} \) Gauge pressure on the right side, \( P_{\text{gauge}} = -50 \, \text{Pa} \) Absolute pressure, \( P = P_0 + P_{\text{gauge}} \) \( P = 1.01 \times 10^5 \, \text{Pa} - 50 \, \text{Pa} \) \( P = Show more…
