A force, P, is applied to a piston with a mass of 15 kg and a diameter of 43 cm that rests on top of a cylinder containing water as shown. (The piston is free to move in the cylinder, but is sealed so no water can escape.) An open U-tube manometer is connected to the cylinder as shown. Determine the applied force, P in kN, if h1 = 68 mm and h = 100 mm. You can use the following data: the specific weight of water is 9.81 kN/m³ and the specific gravity of mercury is 13.546. Approximate your answer to three decimal places TU Piston Water Mercury
