The left limb of U-tube mercury manometer is connected to a pipe line conveying water. The level of the mercury in the left limb is 0.6 m below the centre of the pipe line and right limb is open to the atmosphere. The level of the mercury in the right limb is 0.45 m above that in the left limb and the space above the mercury in the right limb contains benzene of specific gravity 0.88 to a height of 0.3 m. Find the pressure of water in the pipe.
