QUESTION 3
A U-tube differential manometer connects two pressure points, A and B in a pipe. Pipe A contains a liquid of specific gravity 1,9 under a pressure of 150kNm2 while Pipe B contains oil of specific gravity 0,85 under a 250kNm2 pressure. The distance from the top of Pipe B to Pipe A is 2 m . Determine the difference in pressure measured by mercury as fluid filling a U-tube. The specific gravity of Mercury =13,6.S1 on the left and S2 on the right when looking at the diagram below.
