The pressure in the pressurized water tank is measured by a multi-fluid manometer with one end open to the atmosphere. Determine the absolute pressure of air in the tank (pressure at point 1) assuming that the air pressure is uniform. The densities of mercury, water and oil are 13,600 kgm/m3, 1000 kgm/m3, 850 kgm/m3 ,respectively. h1= 25cm, h2=35 cm and h3=50 cm.
