Consider a differential manometer whose ends are connected to two different pipes A andB and containing different liquids at different levels. Let us assume that the pressure at point A is more than that at point B. Oil is in pipe A whose density 800 kg/m³ shows a difference in mercury levels as 100 mm. The height of oil between center of pipe A to the mercury level in left limb is 200 mm. Methanol (relative density 0.791) is in pipe B and the height of Methanol between center of pipe B and mercury level in the right limb is 5 cm. Calculate the difference in pressures at the two points A and B.
Include a free body diagram A simple manometer is used to measure pressure of oil (s= 0.8) flowing in a pipe line. Its right limb is open to the atmosphere and the left limb is connected to the pipe.

Figure 1 shows a fairly large U-tube manometer containing water (density p= 1000.0 kg.m³3) and oil (density p=900.0 kg.m³). The left-hand side opening is sealed with a rubber stopper. The height of the oil column is h₂ cm. The height of the water column above the water/oil boundary is h₁ = 20.00 cm. The external pressure is given by Pout = 100.00 kPa.
