A differential manometer is connected at two points A and B of two pipes as shown in the fig. 1. The pipe A contains a liquid of Specific gravity 1.5, While pipe B contains a liquid of specific gravity 0.9. The pressures at A and B are 9.81 X 104 N/m² and 17.66 X 10ª N/m² respectively. Find the difference in mercury level (h) in the differential manometer. Sp. gr =1.5 Sp. gr = 0.9 3 m 2 m
1. Consider the following diagram. The fluid flowing in the pipe is oil (SG = 0.830). The fluid in the manometer is water (SG = 1.00). Water, pw = 1000 kg/m³ 7 cm Oil, p = 830 kg/m³ a. Determine P₂ - P₁ in kPa. b. Determine the direction of flow. (Left to right, or right to left). Explain why this is the case. c. The height of oil between the manometer and the pipe is unknown. Explain how you can still solve the problem without knowing this height. Would this height ever matter? Hint: consider practical issues of design. Could the height be 0 cm? Could it be 1000 cm?
