QUIZ 1 Name :____________________________________________________________________ Matrix No : ________________________________________________________________ a) A multi-fluid container is connected to U-tube, as shown in Figure 1.0.

For the given specific gravities and fluid column heights;

Figure 1.0 i) Determine the gage pressure at A. Given the density of water is 998 kgm-3. (3 marks)

ii) Determine the height of a mercury column that would create the same pressure at A. Given SGHg=13.6 . (2 marks)

b) For the inclined-tube manometer of Figure 2.0, the pressure in pipe A is 4.1 kPa. The fluid in both pipes A and B is water, and the gauge fluid in the manometer has a specific gravity of 2.6. Given the density of water is 998 kgm-3.

Figure 2.0 i) Determine the pressure in pipe B correspond to the different reading shown. (Given =30o). (4 marks)

ii)

State one (1) advantage of using inclined-tube manometer. (1 marks)
