Biotransport Monometer

This document contains 5 homework problems from a BMED3310 class involving pressure measurements using manometers and determining specific gravities of liquids: 1) A mercury manometer indicates a pressure difference of 0.30m between pipes A and B, with pipe A at 30mm Hg. Determine the pressure in pipe B. 2) Determine the specific gravity of Fluid 3 using a tank and manometer setup with three different liquids. 3) Calculate how far a hydrometer stem would protrude above the surface of a liquid with specific gravity 1.10, given measurements in water. 4) Calculate the pressure in pipe B of an inclined-tube manometer where pipe A is at 0.6

BMED3310 Homework 2

M2.59 The mercury manometer shown below indicates a differential reading of 0.30m when
the pressure in pipe A is 30mm Hg. The specific weight of water is 9.8kN/m 3, while the density
of mercury is 13.69 g/cm3, and the specific gravity of oil is 1.070 at 15C. Determine the
pressure in pipe B.
M2.55 Three different liquids with properties as indicated fill the tank and manometer tubes as shown.
Determine the specific gravity of Fluid 3.
M2.145 When a hydrometer having a stem diameter of 0.30 in is placed in water, the stem protrudes
3.15 in. above the water surface. If the water is replaced with a liquid having a specific gravity of 1.10,
how much of the stem would protrude above the liquid surface? The hydrometer weighs 0.042 lb.
M2.43 For the inclined-tube manometer the pressure in pipe A is 0.6 psi. The fluid in both pipes A and B
is water, and the gage fluid in the manometer has a specific gravity of 2.6. What is the pressure in pipe B
corresponding to the differential reading shown?
M2.41 An inverted open tank is held in place by a force R as shown. If the specific gravity of the
manometer fluid is 2.5, determine the value of h.
