Consider a differential manometer whose ends are connected to two different pipes A andB and containing different liquids at different levels. Let us assume that the pressure at point A is more than that at point B. Oil is in pipe A whose density 800 kg/m³ shows a difference in mercury levels as 100 mm. The height of oil between center of pipe A to the mercury level in left limb is 200 mm. Methanol (relative density 0.791) is in pipe B and the height of Methanol between center of pipe B and mercury level in the right limb is 5 cm. Calculate the difference in pressures at the two points A and B.

One side of the container has a 03-m square door that is hinged at its top edge. If the container is filled with water, determine the smallest force F that must be applied to the bottom edge of the door to keep it closed.
A U-tube mercury manometer in communication with the 3-m radius spherical storage tank reads h = 1.0 m. If the atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa, the density of the mercury is 13.59 g/cm3, and g = 9.81 m/s2, determine the pressure of the natural gas in the storage, in kPa and psig.
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.
