- A rigid, hermetically sealed container contains two fluids: water (103 kg / m3 ) and air. A pressure gauge, attached to the top of the tank, indicates a pressure 40 kPa vacuum gauge. If the atmospheric pressure of the place is 105 Pa and the water inside the container has a height of 30 cm, determine the absolute pressure at the bottom of the tank. Consider that the gravitational acceleration of the place is 9.8 m / s2 . a) 60 kPa b) 62.94 kPa c) 142.94 kPa d) 57.06 kPaarrow_forwardA U-tube manometer is used to check the pressure of natural gas entering a furnace. One side of the manometer is connected to the gas inlet line, and the water level in the other side open to atmospheric pressure rises 2.0 in.
