Water in a tank is used to control the water pressure in a pipe as shown in Figure P5 below. Find the pressure in the pipe at A if h = 200 mm and the mercury is at the elevation shown (between points B and C). Assume standard atmospheric pressure and neglect the diameter of the pipe. Express your answer in kPa.

The beam shown in the figure below has continuous lateral support of both flanges. The uniform load is a service load consisting of 70% dead load and 30% live load. The dead load includes the weight of the beam. 6 k/ft +9 18' If A992 steel is used, is a W12 × 35 adequate?
