- A U-tube open at both ends is partially filled with water (Figure (a)). Oil (p = 750 kg/m³) is then poured into the right arm and forms a column L = 4.53 cm high (Figure (b)). Shield Po Water Oil (a) Determine the difference h in the heights of the two liquid surfaces. (The density of water is 1.00 x 103 kg/m3.) cm (b) The right arm is then shielded from any air motion while air is blown across the top of the left arm until the surfaces of the two liquids are at the same height (Figure (c)). Determine the speed of the air being blown across the left arm. Assume the density of air is 1.29 kg/m. m/sarrow_forwardIf a kitchen sink has a volume of 20 L.
