1. In an open 5-m tank, layers of liquid are placed to fill up to 4.25 m of its height. Referring to tank on Figure 1, (a) determine the gage pressure due to the liquid weight at the following points: (i) on the surface of oil; (i) at the interface between oil and water; (ii) at the interface between water and olive oil; (iv) at the interface between olive oil and mercury: (v) at the bottom of the tank. (b) If the tank was closed and sealed at the top, determine the pressure at the layer of air above the oil if the pressure at the bottom of the tank is 150 kPa. Elev = 23.00 m Air Elev = 22.25 m %3D Oil G, = 0.78 Elev = 21.50 m Water
