Absolute pressure in tank is P1 = 260 kPa and local ambient absolute pressure is P2 =100 kPa. If liquid density in pipe is 13600 kg/m3 , compute liquid height, h=..?.. m ? Use g =10 m/s2

Answer:

1.176m

Step-by-step explanation:

Local ambient pressure(P1) = 100 kPa

Absolute pressure(P2)=260kPa

Net pressure=absolute pressure-local ambient absolute pressure

Net pressure=P1(absolute pressure)-P2(local ambient absolute pressure)

Net pressure=260-100=160kPa

Pressure= ρgh

160kPa=13600*10*h

h=
(160000)/(136000)

h=1.176m
