Understanding Oil Density in U-Tubes 🌊

In this video, I walk you through solving problem number 18 from the Giancoli Physics textbook, which involves determining the density of oil in a U-shaped tube filled with water. I encourage you to pause the video and think through the problem before continuing. We discuss the principles of pressure equilibrium and how to apply the relevant equations to find the solution. Please make sure to calculate the density of the oil and check if your answer aligns with the expected range. Giancoli AP Edition 7th Edition, Chapter 10 (Fluids), Problem 18
