Question details
Figure shows two pipes transporting fluids connected by an
inclined manometer. The manometer contains some heavy contaminants
and mercury. If the density of fluid 1 (f1), fluid 2 (f2),
contaminants (c), and mercury (Hg) is 2460 kg/m3, 770 kg/m3, 12250
kg/m3, and 13600 kg/m3 respectively, and the height h is 1.4 m,
average radius of manometer curve (r) is 5 cm, and the length of
the inclined tube (L) is 100 cm, determine a. Pressure difference
between the two b. Which of the two pipe has higher
pressure?pipes b. Which of the two pipe
has higher pressure?
