HYDRAULICS & FLUID MECHANICS QUIZ

A barometer reads the difference be-tween local and standard atmospheric pressure

Local atmospheric pressure depends upon elevation of locality only

Standard atmospheric pressure is the mean local atmospheric pressure a* sea level

Local atmospheric pressure is always below standard atmospheric pressure

in any direction and in any location.

inclined line with upward flow

horizontal line
