Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What liquid is used in a manometer?
A. The most common fluids are alcohol, water and mercury.
Q. Why is alcohol used in a manometer?
A. Because of its low density, alcohol allows for a longer column than other fluids in manometers. It also gives the inclined tube a proper meniscus.
Q. What pressure does a manometer measure?
A. Manometers are used to measure pressure which is defined as the force produced by a gas or liquid per unit of surface area due to the effects of gravity on the weight of that gas or liquid.
