Think about gravity's role in fluid pressure.
A cylindrical tank with a height of 10m is filled with 7m of water and 2.5m of oil (specific gravity 0.9). Calculate the pressure at the bottom of the tank.
Calculate contributions from both fluids separately for accuracy.
In a pressurized gas system, a manometer shows 1.5 meters of mercury above atmospheric pressure and 0.4 m of water below it. Find the pressure in atmosphere.
Bear in mind to convert mercury pressure into appropriate units.
