The pressure in a natural gas pipe is measured with the pressure gauge shown in the figure, with one of the branches open to the atmosphere where the local atmospheric pressure is 13.4 psi. The specific gravity of oil and mercury are 0.69 and 13.6 respectively. The density of water is 62.4 lbm / ft3 and the acceleration of gravity is 32.2 ft / s2. Determine the absolute pressure in the pipe. Aceite = oil Mercurio = mercury Agua = water
