Question

1.16 An inverted U-tube manometer containing oil (SG = 0.8) is connected to two vessels as shown in Fig. 1.16. The vessel on the left contains liquid carbon tetrachloride (density 1600 kg/m3), is closed and pressurised to 50 kPa (gauge). The vessel on the right contains water and is open to the atmosphere. Use the given data to determine the depth H of the liquid stored in the left vessel. Ans: 0.89 m Carbon tetrachloride 50 kPa 02 m Oil Water 0.3m 60m 0.3 m Figure 1.16
