A single column vertical manometer is connected to a pipe containing oil of specific gravity 0.9. The area of the reservoir is 80 times the area of the manometer tube. The reservoir contains mercury of specific gravity 13.6. The level of mercury in the reservoir is at a height of 300 mm below the centre of the pipe and difference of mercury levels in the reservoir and right limb is 500 mm. Find the pressure in the pipe.

A U-tube containing mercury (sg = 13.6) has itsright-hand limb open to the atmosphere and the left-handlimb connected to a pipe conveying water under pressure,the difference in the level of mercury in the two limbs being200 mm. If the mercury level in the left-hand limb is 400 mmbelow the pipe's center line, find the pipeline's absolutepressure (kPa). Also, find the new difference in levels ofmercury in the U-tube if the pressure in the pipe falls by 2kPa.
