Fluid Pressure

The term fluid pressure is coined as, the measurement of the force per unit area of a given surface of a closed container. It is a branch of physics that helps to study the properties of fluid under various conditions of force.

Gauge Pressure

Pressure is the physical force acting per unit area on a body; the applied force is perpendicular to the surface of the object per unit area. The air around us at sea level exerts a pressure (atmospheric pressure) of about 14.7 psi but this doesn’t seem to bother anyone as the bodily fluids are constantly pushing outwards with the same force but if one swims down into the ocean a few feet below the surface one can notice the difference, there is increased pressure on the eardrum, this is due to an increase in hydrostatic pressure.

Question

A U-tube open at both ends is partially filled with water (Figure (a)). Oil (ρ = 750 kg/m³) is then poured into the right arm and forms a column, L = 5.20 cm high (Figure (b)).

(a) Determine the difference in the heights of the two liquid surfaces. (The density of water is 1.00 × 10³ kg/m³.)

(b) The right arm is then sealed off from the atmosphere while air is blown across the top of the left arm until the surfaces of the two liquids are at the same height (Figure (c)). Determine the speed of the air being blown across the top of the left arm. Assume the density of air is 1.29 kg/m³.

---

**Explanation of Diagrams:**

- **Figure (a):** Shows a U-tube partially filled with water. Both arms are open to the atmosphere.

- **Figure (b):** Oil is added to the right arm, creating a column of height 5.20 cm. The oil is less dense than water (ρ = 750 kg/m³), causing a height difference between the two arms.

- **Figure (c):** The right arm is sealed, and air is blown across the top of the left arm, equalizing the liquid levels in both arms. This demonstrates the effect of air speed on pressure differences.
