Given information
Given that the two fluids meet at the bottom of the U and the alcohol at a height of 16.0 cm
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
The formula for pressure at a depth for alcohol is,
Here, is atmospheric pressure,
is the density of alcohol,
is the acceleration of gravity and is the height of alcohol.
To find pressure at depth for water,
Here, is the atmospheric pressure,
is the density of water,
is the acceleration of gravity and is the height of water
We know that If the fluid is stationary, then the pressure at the meeting point is same
