Problem $01\mathrm{.}068$E $-$ Measuring pressure in an air tank with a manometer

A manometer is used to measure the air pressure in a tank. The fluid used has a specific gravity of $1\mathrm{.}25,$ and the differential height between the two arms of the manometer is $36\mathrm{.}00in.$ If the local atmospheric pressure is $12\mathrm{.}7$ psia, determine the absolute pressure in the tank for the cases of the manometer arm with the higher and lower fluid level being attached to the tank. Take the density of water to be $62\mathrm{.}4lb\frac{m}{f}{t}^3.$

The absolute pressure in the tank for the manometer arm with the higher fluid level being attached to the tank is psia.

The absolute pressure in the tank for the manometer arm with the lower fluid level being attached to the tank is psia.
