Fluid Mechanics question: A device used for measuring the specific weight of a liquid consists of a u-tube manometer as shown. The manometer tube has an internal diameter of 0.5 cm and originally has water in it. Exactly 2 cm3 of unknown liquid is poured into one leg of the manometer, and a displacement of 5cm is measured between the surfaces as shown. What is the specific weight of the unknown liquid?
A manometer is a device that measures pressure. A common simple manometer consists of a U shaped tube of glass filled with some liquid. Water is first filled into the U-tube until a clear horizontal water surface is visible on both legs of the U-tube. Unequal amounts of kerosene were then dropped into both legs of the U-tube. The height of kerosene in the left leg was measured as 8.3 cm high and 5.2 cm on the right leg. The difference in elevation between the interfaces of kerosene and water measured 2.5 cm. Determine the specific gravity of kerosene.
