List of top Fluid Mechanics Questions on Pressure Measurement

Consider the following statements regarding the pressure measured at a point in a fluid.
S1: Absolute pressure is gauge pressure plus atmospheric pressure.
S2: Gauge pressure is measured by considering absolute zero pressure as datum.
S3: Absolute pressure is measured by considering atmospheric pressure as datum.
S4: Vacuum pressure is negative pressure obtained by subtracting absolute pressure from atmospheric pressure.

The pressure in a pipe at X is to be measured by an open manometer as shown in the figure. Fluid A is oil with a specific gravity of 0.8 and Fluid B is mercury with a specific gravity of 13.6. The absolute pressure at X is  kN/m\(^2\). (round off to one decimal place).} 
[Assume Density of water = 1000 kg/m³, gravity = 9.81 m/s², atmospheric pressure = 101.3 kN/m².]
