Your work is to study the following well-type manometer that will be used for students in the fluid mechanics lab: The manometer is built with a tube diameter of 20 mm and a reservoir diameter of 10 cm. When there is no pressure difference across the manometer, the elevations on both sides are the same at A* level.   1. When a high pressure is applied to the left side, the water in the small tube goes 30 cm up, calculate PA. 2. Explain the use and limitations of manometers. Then suggest two points for using welltype manometer for accurate

Task 3:
Your work is to study the following well-type manometer that will be used for students in the fluid
mechanics lab:
The manometer is built with a tube diameter of 20 mm and a reservoir diameter of 10 cm. When
there is no pressure difference across the manometer, the elevations on both sides are the same at
A* level.

 

1. When a high pressure is applied to the left side, the water in the small tube goes 30 cm up,
calculate PA.
2. Explain the use and limitations of manometers. Then suggest two points for using welltype manometer for accurate measurements, write your answer in 75 words or less.
