3. An open water manometer is used to measure the pressure in a tank. The tank is
half-filled with 50,000 kg of a liquid chemical that is not miscible in water. The
manometer tube is filled with liquid chemical. What is the pressure in the tank
relative to the atmospheric pressure?
(A) 1,4 kPa
(B) 1,9 kPa
(C) 2,4 kPa
(D) 3,4 kPa

the inclined portion? The surface under pressure is a rectangle 1 m at the base
and 2.31 m tall.
(A) 69 N
