Pressure problem(Fluid mechanic)
1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
enclosed, thanks for checking 2. Relevant equations P = ρgh 3. The attempt at a solution I have try to add up all pressure in the tank (including gauge pressure, pressure of the oil(ρg*0.5), pressure of the water(ρg*0.8)) but still can't balance out the equation since the answer of part A is 1.4m also, I don't have any clue about part B thanks if anyone can give me any help |

Let's see you working. In terms of depth of water, how much pressure at the bottom of the tank comes from:
- The gas above the oil - The oil - The water in the tank? For B: - what is the pressure at the water/Hg boundary? - what height of Hg is that equivalent to? |
