A YouTube (sorry U-tube) manometer containing mercury is connected to two static pressure taps at the same elevation but at different locations along a horizontal pipe containing water. An accurate measurement of the difference in static pressure at the two pressure taps is registered by: O The (density of mercury minus the density of water) times the acceleration due to gravity times the height difference between the tops of the mercury column O The (density of mercury) times the acceleration due to gravity times the height difference between the top s of the mercuury colu mp

Question
A YouTube (sorry U-tube) manometer containing mercury is connected
to two static pressure taps at the same elevation but at different
locations along a horizontal pipe containing water. An accurate
measurement of the difference in static pressure at the two pressure
taps is registered by:
O The (density of mercury minus the density of water) times the acceleration due to
gravity times the height difference between the tops of the mercury column
O The (density of mercury) times the acceleration due to gravity times the height
difference between the top s of the mercuury colu mp
