Variation of pressure

From the equation of pressure, pressure is directly proportional to the applied force.

Water supplied to a house by a water main has a pressure of 3.00105N/m2 early on a summer day when neighborhood use is low. This pressure produces a flow of 20.0 L/min through a garden hose. Later in the day, pressure at the exit of the water main and entrance to the house drops, and a flow of only 8.00 L/min is obtained through the same hose. (a) What pressure is now being supplied to the house, assuming resistance is constant? (b) By what factor did the flow rate be water main increase in order to cause this decrease in delivered pressure? The pressure at the entrance of the water main is 5.00105N/m2 , and the original rate was 200 L/min. (c) How many more users are there, assuming each would consume 20.0 L/min in be morning?

Scurrilous con artists have been known to represent gold-plated tungsten ingots as pure gold and sell them at prices much below gold value but high above the cost of tungsten. With what accuracy must you be able to measure the mass of such an ingot in and out of water to tell that it is almost pure tungsten rather than pure gold?
Considering the magnitude of typical arterial blood pressures, why are mercury rather than water manometers used for these measurements?
An airplane is cruising at altitude 10 km. The pressure outside the craft is 0.287 atm; within the passenger compartment, the pressure is 1.00 atm and the temperature is 20C. A small leak occurs in one of the window seals in the passenger compartment. Model the air as an ideal fluid to estimate the speed of the airstream flowing through the leak.

Figure 11.17 shows how a common measurement of arterial pressure is made. Is there any effect on the measured pressure if the manometer is Iowered? What is the effect of raising the arm above the shoulder? What is the effect of placing the cuff on the upper leg with me person standing? Explain your answers In terms of pressure created by the weight of a fluid. Figure 11.17 In routine blood pressure measurements, an inflatable cuff is placed on the upper arm at the same level as the heart. Blood now is detected just below the cuff, and corresponding pressures are transmitted to a mercury-filled manometer. (credit: LJ_S_ Army photo by Spc. Micah E.Clare\4TH BCT)
