Question

PLEASE READ IT CARFULY .

I am confused about the manometer equation

in this question how did we get the equation of the pressure difference ( P2-P1 = pgh ) ???

WHY IT DOESN'T WORK IN THE NEXT QUESTION ???

?

Write the formula for pressure difference = (0.7x 1000) (9.81) (0.0067-0.0023) sin 30 151.074 Pa

Explanation / Answer

In the first problem we have applied the hydrostatic equation. P1-P2=rho * g* h. Which gives the pressure differece.

In the second problem we have applied continutiy equation. A1V1=A2V2.

We need to apply the equations as per our requirement. What we need in the problem and which equation we need to apply that we should understand that's it.
