The pressure gauge reading in meter of water column shown in the
given figure will be

Show answer and solution
P0+ρwg1+ρwg0.2−ρHgg0.2=P0P_{0} + \rho_{w}g1 + \rho_{wg}0.2 - \rho_{Hg}g0.2 = P_{0}
P−P0=ρHgg0.2−ρwg(1.2)=14896P - P_{0} = \rho_{Hg}g0.2 - \rho_{w}g(1.2) = 14896
14896=ρwgh14896 = \rho_{wgh}
h = 1.52
