A barometer at the top of the tank reads 101.35 KPa. A pressure gage 2 m from the bottom of the tank reads 10 KPa. If the fluid inside the tank has a specific gravity of 0.95, determine:
a) the absolute pressure at the bottom of the tark
b) the depth of the fluid? If the fluid is replaced with water and the height is doubled, what will be the new reading of the pressure gage?
