A manometer is used to measure
A. Atmospheric pressure
B. Pressure in pipes and channels
C. Pressure in Venturimeter
D. Difference of pressures between two points in a pipe
Answer: Option D
Solution (By Examveda Team)
A manometer is used to measure the difference of pressures between two points in a pipe.Manometers are designed to measure the pressure difference between two points, providing a way to gauge the pressure drop or gain within a system.
They are not typically used to measure atmospheric pressure directly, nor are they used for measuring pressure in Venturimeters specifically.
Instead, manometers are commonly employed in various applications to compare the pressure at two locations within a pipe or system.
