Question

A manometer consists of a U-shaped tube containing water. One side is connected to the apparatus and the other side is open to the atmosphere. If external pressure is 1 atm and the level of water on the open side of tube is 10 cm lower than the side connected to the apparatus. The pressure of gas is ( Assume density of water is 1 g/ml and g is 10 m/s^2, 1 atm=1.013×10^5 Pa)

Q. A manometer consists of a

U -

shaped tube containing a liquid. One side is connected to the apparatus and other is open to the atmosphere. The pressure inside the apparatus is then determined from the difference in heights of the liquid. The external pressure is

760 t o r r

and density of liquid is

10 g c m^{- 3}

. Then open side is

10.0 c m

lower than the side connected to the apparatus. The pressure in the apparatus is (approx)

One arm of a glass U-tube is open to the atmosphere, whereas the other vertical arm is connected to a gas supply. The difference in levels of mercury (density = 13.6 g cm^-3) between the vertical arms of the U-tube manometer is h = 3 cm. If the atmospheric pressure is 760 mm Hg and the gravitational acceleration is 9.8 m s^-2, then the pressure of the gas is about:
