A pipe U filled with water with density of 1000 kg/m3. One column of pipe U filled with glyserin with density of 1200 kg/m3. If the height of glyserin is 4 cm, determine the height difference of bo...
Solution ,
Given ,
Density of water (ρ1) = 1000 kg/m3
Density of glycerin (ρ2) = 1200 kg/m3
Height of glycerin (h2) = 4 cm
The height difference of both columns of the pipe. = ?
we have ,
The height of the column of the pipe (h1) :
ρ1h1= ρ2h2
(1000)(h1) = (1200)(4)
(1000)(h1) = 4800
h1= 4.8 cm
The height difference of both columns of the pipe U = h1– h2= 4.8 cm – 4 cm = 0.8 cm
