Patients suffering from decompression sickness may be treated in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber filled with oxygen at greater than atmospheric pressure. A cylindrical chamber with flat end plates of diameter 0.75 m is filled with oxygen to a gauge pressure of 27 kPa. What is the resulting force on the end plate of the cylinder?

A multifluid container is connected to a U-tube, as shown in the figure. For the given specific gravitles and fluid column heights. determine the gage pressure at A. Also determine the height of a mercury column that would create the same pressure at A. The column heighth of oil is 86 cm. The specific gravitles are 1.26 for glycerin and 0.90 for oll. We take the standard density of water to be Pw=1000 kg/m³ and the specific gravity of mercury to be 13.6. h 35 cm 18 cm Į Oil SG-0.90 Water Glycerin SG-1.26 90 cm 15 cm The gage pressure at A is kPa. The height of a mercury column that would create the same pressure at A is cm.
