In order to measure the pressure difference between two points in a pipeline carrying water, an inverted U tube is connected to the points, and air under atmospheric pressure is entrapped in the upper portion of the U-tube. If the manometer deflection is 0.8 m and the downstream tapping is 0.5 m below the upstream point, find the pressure difference between the two points
