An experiment was conducted using a communicating vessel to knowthehydraulic pressure. The communicating vessel consists of two column, XandY. Column X has a diameter of 15 cm and column Y of 75 cm. Oil (s = 0.852) wasfilled to the communicating vessel. A load of 1275 N was given to the columnY. Determine the minimum force that should be given to column Xso that theload can be lifted and the density of oil !
