3. The system in Figure 2-5 is at 20oC. If atmospheric pressure is 101.03 kPa and the absolute
pressure at the bottom of the tank is 231.3 kPa, what is the specific gravity of olive oil?
Note: density of water=9.79 kN/m3 (specific gravity SAE oil is 0.89, h SAE oil is 1.5m, h water is 2.5m, H
olive oil is 2.9m, h mercury is 0.4m) and use g=9.79m/s2.
a) 1.39
b) 1.29
c) 1.49 
d) 1.59
