A Venturi meter having a diameter of 6 in at the throat is installed in a horizontal 12-in water main. In a differential gage partly filled with mercury (the remainder of the tube being filled with water) and connected with the meter at the inlet and the throat, what would be the difference in level of the mercury columns in inches if the discharge is 5.0 cfs? Neglect head loss.
