A manometer is used to measure the pressure difference between points A and B in a pipe. Water flows in the pipe, and the specific gravity of the manometer fluid is 2.8. The distances and manometer deflection are indicated. Find (a) the pressure differences PA - PB , and (b) the difference in piezometric pressure, pz, Pz,A - Pz,B· Express both answers in kPa.
