Q: A Mercury manometer is attached to a pipe having suction pressure. the right limb is open to the atmosphere while the contact between Mercury and water is in left limb at a distance of 30 cm from the center of the pipe. a) if the difference in the level of Mercury in the two limbs is 20 cm. what will be the pressure in the pipe. b) if the pressure in the pipe is increased to 2900 pascal. what will be the new difference in Mercury level.
