Answer:
hm = 0.37 m
Explanation:
Given:
Density of liquid contain in pipes
ρ = 923 kg/m3
Density of manometric fluid
ρ m = 13550 kg/m3
Pressure in the pipe A,
P = 10K Pa
1 - Find the initial pressure difference in pipes, we can apply hydrostatic force concept in both the pipes
P A + ρAghA − PB − ρBghB − ρmghm = 0
P A - P B = 923 × 9.8 × 0.1 + 13550 × 9.8 × 0.3 − 923 × 9.8 × 0.1
P A - P B = 39690 N
(P A + 1000) + ρAghA − PB − ρBghB − ρmghm
PA - PB + 1000 = ρmghm - ρAghA − ρBghB
PA - PB + 1000 = 13550 × 9.8 × hm + 923 × 9.8 × 0.1 − 923 × 9.8 × 0.1
Now put the value from (1) the manometric height
hm = 0.37 m
