Question: [ HW 0 3 - Prob 0 3 ] An inverted U - tube manometer containing oil ( SG = 0 . 8 ) is

[HW03-Prob03] An inverted U-tube manometer containing oil (SG =0.8) is located between two reservoirs as shown in the figure below. The reservoir on the left, which contains carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) of hCCl4=2.2 ft, is closed and pressurized to p =14.5 psia. The reservoir on the right contains water and is open to the atmosphere. With the given data, determine the depth of water, h, in the right reservoir. Use density of CCl4 from Table 1.5, atmopsheric pressure as 14.6 psia, density of water at 39.20Fas 1.94 slug/ft3, and acceleration due to gravity as 32.17 ft/s2. TABLE 1.5
