Chapter 2, Problem 2.15P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason for no change in the reading of the manometer when the liquid is aerated is to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

A device that is used to measure the pressure differences is known as a manometer. A liquid of known density is filled within a U-tube whose level is measured and is used to calculate the pressure applied by the fluid in which this tube is placed.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason for the permitted calculation of the aerated liquid height due to the installation of the second manometer is to be explained. Assumptions involved are to be stated.
