5.16 Oil (SG=0.93) is pumped from a well. If the pump is 11.7 ft above the surface of the oil, what pressure must the pump be able to generate to lift the oil up to the pump? 5.17 A piston 8.7-in diameter has a pressure of 3.7 kPa on its surface. What force in SI units is applied to the piston? 5.18 The water pressure at the base of a water tower is 107.5 psi. What is the head of water? 5.19 A U-tube manometer reads a pressure of 270 torr. What is the pressure in pounds per square inch absolute? 5.20 Each of the three circular containers in Fig.5.13 contain a liquid with a SG of 1.37. What is the pressure in pascal gauge acting on the base of each container and the weight of liquid in each container?
