Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A U-tube manometer connected to a gas pipeline shows a height difference of 3 cm between the two arms. If the density of the manometric fluid is 850 kg/m³, calculate the gauge pressure in the pipeline (g = 9.81 m/s²).

💡 Hint: Use the manometer height and fluid density to calculate pressure difference.

Question 2

Design a stepped well that allows access to water during drought. Describe how hydrostatic principles guide your design choices.

💡 Hint: Consider how depth influences ease of access.
