Question

The container shown in the figure is filled with oil. It is open to the atmosphere on the left.

What is the pressure at point A? PA= ?kpa

What is the pressure difference between Ponts A and B? PB-PA= ?kpa

What is the pressure difference between Points A and C? PC-PA=? Kpa

Explanation / Answer

a> Pressure at A= Patm+0.25*rho*g...........(Patm is present in the whole vessel, and the added 25cm column above A adds to its pressure) rho=density of oil, g=accn due to gravity b>Pb=Patm+0.75*rho*g Pb-Pa=0.50*rho*g c>Pc=Patm+0.100*rho*g--------------------due 100cm column above c Pc-Pa=0.75*rho*g
