Question 7
Figure Q2 （b） shows a multi-fluid container is connected to a U-
tube. For the given specific gravity and fluid column height,
determine:
A. The gauge pressure at Point A (bottom of container).
B. The height of a mercury column that would create the same
pressure at A.

Answer: PA = 470.88Pa
h = 0.0035 m of mercury

Question 8
• An inverted U-tube as shown in
Figure Q2(b) is used to measure
the pressure difference between
two points A and B in an inclined
pipeline through which water is
flowing. Given the difference of
level h = 0.3m, a = 0.25m and b=
0.15m. Determine the pressure
difference PB-PA if the top of the
manometer is filled with oil of
relative density 0.8.

Answer: PB-PA = -392.4Pa
