Q1 A U-tube manometer is used to measure the pressure of oil of specific gravity 0.85 flowing in a pipe line. Its left end is connected to the pipe and the right-limb is open to the atmosphere. The centre of the pipe is 100 mm below the level of mercury (specific gravity- 13.6) in the right limb. If the difference of mercury level in the two limbs is 160 mm, determine the absolute pressure of the oil in the pipe. Liquid (5,-ERS) Pips

To keep track of water pressure, a manometer is attached to a water supply pipe. The 3 ft (Hg) measurement on the manometer, on the other hand, could be inaccurate. Determine the right value of the reading (h) if the pressure in the pipe is measured and determined to be 18.6 lb/in² (psi). The specific gravity of Hg is 13.6.
