The top part of a water tank is divided into two compartments, as shown in given figure. Now a fluid with an unknown density is poured into one side, and the water level rises a certain amount on the other side to compensate for this effect. Based on the final fluid heights shown on the figure (h, = 76.8, h2 = 45.2, and hg = 96.5 cm). Determine the density of the fluid added. Assume the liquid does not mix with water and the density of water is 998.2 kg/m3. Unknown liquid hi h3 WATER h2 (use one number after the decimal xxx.x)

The system shown in the figure is used to accurately measure the pressure changes when the pressure is increased by ΔP in the water pipe. When Δh = 90 mm, what is the change in the pipe pressure?
Figure 1 shows a tank containing water. One side of the tank is open to the atmosphere and theother side is sealed with air above the water.a. Calculate the pressures (gage) at Points A, B, C, D, E and F.b. What is the air pressure in the right side of the tank?
A Pitot tube is used to measure the velocity of water at the center of a pipe as shown below. What is the velocity? [Answer in units of ft/s]
Pitot tube is an instrument that is used to measure flowrate in a pipe. Figure 3 shows water flowing through a pipe with pitot tube attached to a U-tube manometer containing Fluid X. Given the difference in height in the manometer, h, calculate the flowrate through the pipe by showing the application of Bernoulli Equation and Hydrostatic Pressure Equation. Details of the parameters are as follows; Difference in manometer, h = 0.1 m Density of water = 1000 kg/m3 Density of Fluid X = 12000 kg/m3 Diameter of pipe = 0.3m
The water flow rate in the pipe will be measured using the pitot tube system given in the figure. At point 1, the velocity is zero and represents the stationary point. Since there is mercury with a density of 13600 kg/m3 in the manometer and the height of the manometer is read 0.06, calculate the volumetric flow rate of the water flowing in the pipe with a diameter of 0.2 m. (ρwater = 1000 kg/m3)

In a laboratory experiment, a two‐fluid differential manometer is used to measure the pressure drop for a flowing process fluid, a silicone oil that is immiscible with water, as shown in Figure 2. Determine the pressure drop between Points A and B if h1 = 500 mm, h2 = 190 mm, and h3 = 275 mm. The densities of the process fluid and water are 1060 kg/m3 and 1000 kg/m3 respectively.
As shown in the figure, water flows in the horizontal pipe. The pipe consists of two different sections, 60 mm and 30 mm in diameter, connected by a smooth reduction. The pressure difference between the two sections is measured with a mercury manometer. Friction effects are neglected. The height between the mercury levels in the two sections of the pipe was determined as 1.4m. Find the velocity and mass flow at points 1 and 2. (Density of mercury: 13.6 grams / cm3, Density of water: 1gr / cm3)

I need to determine the length in meters of ? in the diagram, so that each time, at least 1 quarter of the black rectangle is immersed in the red liquid in the blue container (the immersion area shown in pink outline). I will be flipping the black rectangle 4 times, to cover as much of the black rectangle's area as possible. The red liquid is 0.5m deep, and the blue container is 0.7m high. The black rectangle rests on the top edge of the blue container. See diagram.
