Question: Fluid A is water ( = 1 0 0 0 k g m 3 ) , fluid B is engine oil ( = 8 8

Fluid A is water (=1000kgm3), fluid B is engine oil (=884.1kgm3), fluid C is a liquid having specific
gravity of 1.55, and fluid D is air. Assume a density of water equal to 1000kgm3 and a temperature of
300K for other thermophysical properties. The elevations are z1=4cm,z2=3cm,z3=6cm,z4=3cm,z5
=8cm, and z6=5cm.
Determine the gage pressure of air, in kPa, if the hydrostatic pressure at the bulb encompassing fluid A
is equal to 180kPa (gage). Note the location in the bulb where the pressure is equal to 180kPa (gage) is
at the bottom tick-mark corresponding to the dimension z1.
 Fluid A is water (=1000kgm3), fluid B is engine oil (=884.1kgm3),
