Water in a tank is pressurized by air while a gauge connected to the tank reads a pressure of 90 kPa. An open-ended multi-fluid manometer is also connected to the tank as shown below. If the fluids and their specific gravity values are as depicted in the figure, and if h1 = 65 cm and h3 = 75 cm, determine the differential height of the oil column, h2.
