A U-tube manometer is connected to a closed tank containing air and water is shown. At the closed end of the manometer the air pressure is 16 psia. Determine the reading on the pressure gage for a differential reading of 4 ft on the manometer. Express your answer in psi (gage). Assume standard atmospheric pressure and neglect the weight of the air columns in the manometer.
