The left limb of a U-tube mercury manometer is connected to a water pipe line, with the mercury level in the leg (specific gravity = 13.6) 19.685inches below the pipe line's center, and the right limb open to the atmosphere. The right limb's mercury level is 0.4374 yard higher than the left, while the space above mercury in the right limb contains benzene (specific gravity = 0.88) to a height of 0.2 m. Determine the water pressure in the pipe.

Question
The left limb of a U-tube mercury manometer is
connected to a water pipe line, with the mercury level in
the leg (specific gravity = 13.6) 19.685inches below the
pipe line's center, and the right limb open to the
atmosphere. The right limb's mercury level is 0.4374 yard
higher than the left, while the space above mercury in the
right limb contains benzene (specific gravity = 0.88) to a
height of 0.2 m. Determine the water pressure in the pipe.
