Chapter 6, Problem 6.30P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reading of the manometer when water is monomeric fluid is to be calculated.

Concept Introduction :

The pressure is calculated by applying the Bernoulli’s equation between two points.

The Bernoulli’s equation between two points is,

  $\frac{P_1}{\rho }+\frac{v_1^2}{2}+g{z}_1=\frac{P_2}{\rho }+\frac{v_2^2}{2}+g{z}_2$

The pressure in terms of height is calculated by the hydrostatic pressure concept.

  $h=\frac{P}{\rho g}$
