Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A tank contains 10 m of water and 3 m of oil (SG = 0.9) above it. Calculate the pressure at the bottom.
💡 Hint: Use p = ρgh for both fluids.
You have a manometer measuring pressure between oil and water. If oil height is 0.05m and water is 0.15m, what is the pressure difference?
💡 Hint: Formulate knowing that pressure difference = density * height difference.
