1. The atmospheric pressure in a certain location was obtained to be 100._ _kPa.

a. Determine the gage pressure(kPa) 2.0m below the surface of a body of liquid (specific
gravity 1._ _ ) in a nearby lake.
b. What is the corresponding absolute pressure (kPa)?
2. If the open manometer shown below gives Fluid A (air, unit weight=12.5N/m 3) and Fluid B
(mercury, specific gravity= 13.6).
a. Find the gage pressure(kPa) at the center of the pipe if x= 30._ _cm and y=60._ _cm.

3. Differential manometer shown below has ends mounted at the sides of two conduits. Find the
pressure difference (Pm-Pn) in kPa if fluids A, B,C have specific gravities 1.00, 2.00, 3.00
respectively. The values of x,y, and z are 30._ _cm, 15cm and 7cm respectively.
