One limb of the u tube manometer is connected to a pipeline carrying water. The manometric fluid used is mercury of specific gravity 13.6. the right limb open to atmosphere contains 300 mm liquid of specific gravity 0.88 at the top. The level of mercury in right limb is 450 mm above the level of mercury in the left limb. The level of mercury in left limb is 600 mm below the center of pipeline. Calculate the pressure in pipeline.
