Transcribed Image Text:3. A Differential manometer is connected at
the points A and Bat the centre of two pipes.
The pipe A(left limb) contains a liquid of
specific gravity = 1.5 while pipe B (right
limb)contains a liquid of specific gravity 0.85.
The pressure at A and B are .5 kgf/cm2 and
1.2 kgf/cm2 respectively. Find the difference
in level of mercuru in the differential
manometer. A is 2.5m above B and 5 m
above the mercury in its own limb. B is 2.5 m
above the mercury level in limb A.
a) 12.7 cm
b) 25.5 cm
c) 6.28 cm
d) 10.85 cm
