Problem 3.

3.9 m PC  PD   Hg g  0.9
D ▼

PD  Patmos  0 (Gauge Pressure)
h2 PB  PA   w g  0.6
3.6 m PB  PC
A
 PA   w g  0.6  0   Hg g  0.9
so PA   Hg g  0.9   w g  0.6
h1 3.0 m
Contained liquid  PA  9.81  13570  0.9    1000  0.6  
density = 1000 Kgm-3 B  C 
 114kPa

Manometer liquid
density = 13570 Kgm-3

Alternatively, tracing the path from D to A:


So finally, for this type of manometer
PD  PDC  PC  B  PB  A  PA
PA = g(mh2 - lh1)
0   m gh2  0   w gh1  PA ( gauge )
