To determine the flowrate $Q$ of the oil, we will use the Pitot tube principle and the manometer reading to find the velocity of the oil, then calculate the flowrate using the pipe's cross-sectional area.

Given data:

• Specific gravity of oil ($SG_{oil}$) = 0.9
• Specific gravity of manometer fluid ($SG_{fluid}$) = 0.6
• Height difference in manometer ($h$) = $2.5 \text{ m}$
• Pipe diameter ($D$) = $0.08 \text{ m}$ (from the diagram)
• Acceleration due to gravity ($g$) = $9.81 \text{ m/s}^2$
