Question:

As shown, a weight sits on a piston of diameter D1. The piston rides on a reservoir of oil of depth h1 and specific gravity SG. The reservoir is connected to a round tube of diameter D2 and oil rises in the tube to height h2. The oil in the tube is open to atmosphere. Derive an equation for the height h2 in terms of the weight W of the load and other relevant variables. Neglect the weight of the piston.
