Figure 2. Measuring pressure within the container
2.4 A water tank is pressurized by air, where a multifluid manometer is used to measure the pressure as shown in Figure 3. The tank is placed on a hilltop at an elevation of 1248m and the atmospheric pressure is 96kPa. Calculate the air pressure inside the tank if h1=0.15m,h2=0.25m and h3=0.40m. Assume the density of water to be 1000kgm3, for oil to be 900kgm3 and for mercury to be 13600kgm3.
