A uniform cross-sectional area U-tube is open to the atmosphere, is partially filled with mercury (density = 1.36 x104 g/cm3 ). Water is then poured into both arms. If the equilibrium configuration of the tube is as shown in Figure, with h2 = 1.00 cm, determine the value of h1.
A scientist is calculating the density of an ore sample. The scien- tist measures that the ore sample weighs 22.4 N in air. When the sample is suspended by a thin light cord and totally immersed in water, the tension in the cord is 14.2 N. What is the density of the ore sample that the scientist calculates. You can assume that any buoyant force from air is negligible.
A liquid-filled tube called a manometer can be used to measure the pressure inside a container by comparing it to the atmospheric pressure and measuring the height of the liquid. Such a device (filled with water) is shown in the figure, measuring the pressure inside a balloon filled with an unknown gas. The water level on the side of the manometer which is open to the air is 22.3 cm higher than on the side connected to the balloon. a) Find the gauge pressure in the balloon, in units of Pa. Recall the density of water is 1000 kg/m3. b) Find the absolute pressure in the balloon, in units of Pa.

You place an open bottle filled with olive oil (density 880 kg/m^3) in a container filled with water so that the surfaces of both liquids are at the same level. The bottle has a hole in it 18cm below the surface that is initially closed with adhesive tape, as shown in (Figure 1). Determine the vertical distance Δh between the oil surface and water surface after the tape is removed and the equilibrium is reached. Assume that the volume of water is much greater than the volume of olive oil, so that the decrease in the water level is negligible.
