The pressure of water flowing through a pipe is measured by the arrangement shown in figure. For the values given, calculate the pressure in the pipe. Air $P_o = 30 \text{ kPa}$ Water $15^\circ C$ $h_2 = 50 \text{ cm}$ Gage fluid $SG = 2.1$ $l_2 = 4 \text{ cm}$ $l_1 = 6 \text{ cm}$ Pipe Water $15^\circ C$ $h_1 = 6 \text{ cm}$

Step 1
- Pressure gauge reading: P₀ = 30 kPa - Water temperature: 15°C - h₁ = 50 cm (height of water column in left section) - L₁ = 6 cm (length of inclined section along horizontal) - L₂ = 4 cm (length of inclined section along vertical) - h₂ = 6 cm (height of right Show more…
