What does a manometer measure?
Think about what gives liquid its pressure.
What is hydrostatic pressure?
Consider the fluid is not moving.
What device measures liquid pressure?
It sounds like something related to measuring fluid.
True or False: Hydrostatic pressure decreases as depth increases.
Think about pressure and how gravity works with fluids.
A U-tube manometer shows a liquid height difference of 0.6 m for a liquid with a density of 1200 kg/m³. What is the pressure difference represented?
Remember the formula for calculating pressure.
If the pressure measured at the bottom of a tank is 30 kPa, and the tank is filled with oil (density 850 kg/m³), how deep is the oil in the tank?
Think about how to rearrange the formula to solve for depth.
