17) A 12,000-N car is raised using a hydraulic lift, which consists of a U-tube with
anns ofunequal areas, filled with oil and capped at both ends with tight-fitting pistons.
The wider arm ofthe U-tube has a radius of 18.0 cm and the narrower arm has a radius
of5.00 cm. The car rests on the pisten on the wider arm ofthe U-tube. The pistons are
initially at the same leve!. What is the initial force that must be applied to the smaller
pisten in order to start lifting the car? F or purposes of this problem, neglect the weight
ofthe pistons.

22) A reservoir manometer consists of a U-tube in
which the two arms have different diameters, as shown
in Figure 15-5. The diameter on the narrow side is 10.0
mm and the diameter on the reservoir side is 25.0 mm.
The liquid in the manometer is oil with a density of 830
kg/m3 and the fluids in contact with the oil are gases of
negligible density. The dotted line indicates the leve! of
the oil when the pressures p 1 and p2 are equal. What is .::.
