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.
For the tank shown in the figure, determine the reading of the pressure gage if: (a) H =2 m, h =10 cm.(b) H = 0.8 m, h = 20 cm.(c) H = 6 ft, h = 4 in.(d) H =2 ft, h = 8 in.
: The tank shown in figure below is partially filled with water. On the top of the water there is compressed air for which the pressure is the same at every point (h1=4m, h=0.4m a=2m, 1=10 kN/m3, 2=136 kN/m3 Determine:a) The pressure, due to the compressed air on the water surface,b) The force on the triangular gate AB,c) The point of application of the hydrostatic force on the gate from the bottom of the tank
A soccer referee inflates a soccer ball to the standard required measured pressure for a game of 90kPa, before the game. The balloon has an internal volume of 2650 cm3 and the air is at a temperature of 25°C when the balloon is first inflated. The ball is brought onto the field of play, and by the time the game starts, the air temperature has dropped to 0°C. Assuming that the volume of the ball does not change significantly, determine the following: a. The amount of heat transferred from the air to the ball during the process.b. The initial pressure to which the balloon must be inflated so that it is at the required measured pressure of 90kPa when it reaches a temperature of 0°C.

Two ends of an U-tube manometer which contains mercury, is connected between two pipes (A & B) that carries oil of specific gravities 1.5 & 1.4 respectively. The center of the pipe B (right limb) is 10 cm above the pipe A (left limb). The mercury level difference in the Left limb is 4.75 cm, and the height of fluid in the left limb is 5.8cm, find the pressure difference between these two pipes in Pascal. Draw the diagram
A piston (D = 5 cm) is attached to a tank that includes oil (ρ = 850 kg/m3), as shown in the figure below. The pressure within the tank is to be measured by a U-tube attached to the tank. a) Suppose that the piston has negligible weight and the height of the mercury on the right leg of the U-tube (hm) is 15 cm. Determine the vertical distance between the cylinder surface and the mercury on the left leg of the manometer (H). b) Now suppose that the total mass of the piston is 10 kg. Determine the variation in the height of the mercury on the right leg of the U-tube.
