a pipe has a pressure of 4000 pascal and is connected to a 36 degree inclined single column manometer. the level of mercury in the reservoir is at a height 20 cm below the center of the pipe. The length of the inclined column which is at the same level from the mercury inside the reservoir up to the end of the column at the reight limb is 25 cm. Find the specific gravity of the fluid inside the pipe. The area of the reservoir is 125 times the area of the right limb of the manometer
