Question
Q.2. A 6-m deep tank contains 4 m of water and 2 m of oil as shown in the figure-2 below.
I. Determine the pressure at point A and at the bottom of the tank.
II. Draw the pressure distribution diagram.
oil
2 m
A
Pwater = 1000 kg/m³
%3D
SG of oil = 0.98
water
4 m
Figure-2
Solution:
Q3 A pressure tube is used to measure the pressure of oil ( mass density, ) in a pipeline. If the oil rises
to a height of 1.2 above the centre of the pipe, what is the gauge pressure in at that point? (gravity =
9.81 m/s2)
