B. Differential Manometer
For the open tank, with piezometers attached on the side, containing two different immiscible
liquids as shown in Fig. 2-6, find (a) the elevation of the liquid surface in piezometer A, (b) the
elevation of the liquid surface in piezometer B, and (c) the total pressure at the bottom of the
tank.
SAMPLE PROBLEM
In Fig. 2-7 the areas of the plunger A and cylinder B are 6.00 and 600 𝑖𝑛2 , respectively, and
the weight of B is 9000 lb. The vessel and the connecting passages are filled with oil of
specific gravity 0.750. What force F is required for equilibrium, neglecting the weight of A?
SAMPLE PROBLEM
Oil of specific gravity 0.750 flows through the nozzle shown in Fig. 2-10 and deflects the
mercury in the U-tube gage. Determine the value of h if the pressure at A is 20.0 psi.
SAMPLE PROBLEM
Find the pressure difference between A and B for the setup shown in Fig. 2-17.
SEATWORK
Determine the pressure difference between pipes A and B for the differential manometer
shown.
