A gasoline line is connected to a pressure gage through a double-U manometer, as shown. If the reading of the pressure gage is 40 psi, determine the gage pressure of the gasoline line. Assume the unit weight of air to be 0.0765 lb/ft3.
Consider oil flowing through a horizontal pipe at a rate of 3 liter/s. There are two sections of the pipe with diameters 10 cm and 7 cm and the two sections are connected by a smooth reducing section as shown in the schematic. We use a manometer with glycerin as the manometer fluid (with glycerin density of Pglycerin 1,260 kg/m³) to measure the pressure difference between the two pipe sections. Assume that frictional effects are negligible and consider specific gravity of oil as SGoil = 0.76. What is the manometer reading, h (i.e. differential height of glycerin between the two arms of the manometer)? 10 cm I h T 7 cm-

Q/ The laminar flow of water through a pipe is measured by means of a pitot tube situated in the center of the pipe; the reading of a mercury manometer connected to the pitot is 100 mm. The flow is also measured by a venturi meter which connected with the same mercury manometer and the pressure drop across it equals to 300 mm. Find the ratio of venturi to pipe diameter and determine the pressure drop due to friction across the venturi meter.
A manometer consists of a tube of 0.5 inch in the inner diameter and an amount of mercury (SG Hg =13.55). On one side of the tube, oil (SG=1.4) was trapped, a bubble formed, and the fluid inside was stationary. The volume of the oil was 0.6 in^3 and the volume of the air was 0.2 in^3. Now, the oil and bubble are removed. The pressure change across the air bubble is negligible and any curvature on the bubble surface can be neglected in calculating the volumes. Determine how much the mercury height rises (i.e. h 4 -h 2 ).
