Question: 2 ) Consider a U - tube whose arms are open to the atmosphere. Now equal volumes of water ( rho = 1 0

2) Consider a U-tube whose arms are open to the
atmosphere. Now equal volumes of water (\rho =1000 kg/m3
)
and light oil (\rho =789.7 kg/m3
) are poured from different
arms. A person blows from the oil side of the U-tube until
the contact surface of the two fluids moves to the bottom
of the U-tube, and thus the liquid levels in the two arms
are the same. If the fluid height in each arm is 76 cm,
determine the gage pressure the person exerts on the oil
by blowing
