PROBLEM 6 (15 pts) A solvent storage tank is filled with a fluid of unknown density. When the fluid level in the tank is maintained to be 7.23 m, the pressure at the base of the tank is measured to be 756 mmHg. The same fluid is then used in an orifice manometer to measure the pressure drop across a pipe in which flowing fluid is water, as shown in the figure below. Calculate the pressure drop (in Pascals) from point (a) to point (b)? (Take g = 9.8 m/s and dwater = 1000 kg/m?) Hint: you may need the conversion factor: 101.3 x 10 Pa = 101.3 kPa = 760 mmHg H20 (a) HIGH (0) 26 cm
