Reservoir A is filled with liquid with a density of liquid (Fig.). Inside the cylinder cap B with a diameter d = 10 cm there is a piston that is acted upon by a force F. The liquid is in equilibrium and located at a height h2 from the cylinder cap. Based on the readings of the mercury manometer h5 = 0.08 m and knowing the heights h2 = 0.25 m, h3 = 0.4 m, h4 = 0.7 m, h5 = 0.08 m and h6 = 0.15 m, determine: 1) piezometer reading h1; 2) reading of pressure gauge C; 3) force F acting on the piston; 4) absolute pressure of the liquid under the piston Rabs, if Ratm = 105 Pa; Rzh = 900 kg/m3; Ррт = 13600 kg/m3, d = 10 cm.
