CLW3.8 Problem • A manometer is used to measure the pressure of a gas in a tank. The fluid used has a the specific gravity of 0.85, and the manometer column height is 55 cm, as shown in figure. If the local atmospheric pressure is 96 kPa, determine the absolute pressure within the tank. P = ? SG=0.85 P96 kPa h=55 FIGURE Schematic for Example
