2. Attempt any THREE of the following: 12
a) Define capillarity. Derive an expression for capillary rise.
b) U tube differential mercury manometer is connected to
horizontal pipe carrying water at two points A and B. The
difference in levels of mercury in the two limbs is 0.35 m.
Calculate pressure difference at A and B in kN/m2.
c) An isosceles triangular plate of base 4 m and height 4 m is
immersed vertically in an oil of specific gravity 0.9. The base
of triangular plate is touching the surface and the plate is
immersed with apex in downward position. Find the total
pressure and centre of pressure on the plate.
d) Define total hydrostatic pressure and centre of pressure.
Mention two applications of it.

c) A sloping pipe line has diameter of 1 m at higher end and
50 cm at lower end. It carries liquid at specific gravity 0.75
at 4800 lpm. The length of pipe is 350 m and it is laid on
slope of 1 in 100. The pressure at lower end is 1200 KN/m2.
Determine pressure at higher end.
