P2 = P1 + Density(H); P1 = 0.1kg/cm^2 or 1000kg/m2.
Density of oil = specific Gravity x 1000 kg/m3.
= 800kg/m3 (Note: 1000kg/m3 is the density of water).
P2 = 1000 + 800 x 2.5 = 3000kg/m2.
Pressure in H of Water = 3000/1000 = 3.0m.
Density of oil = specific Gravity x 1000 kg/m3.

Pa = 0.1 kg/cm2 = 1000 kg/m2.
Poil = 800*2.5 = 2000 kg/m2.
Total = 3000 kg/m2 = 3000/1000 = 3 meters of water.
Poil = 800*2.5 = 2000 kg/m2.
Total = 3000 kg/m2 = 3000/1000 = 3 meters of water.

Patm = 0.1kg/cm2 = 0.1*10000*9.81/1000 = 9.81 KN/m2.
Poil = 0.8*9.81*2.5 = 19.62 KN/m2.
Ptotal = Patm + Poil.
Ptotal = 19.62 + 9.81 = 29.43 KN/m2.
P in-term of water = 29.43/9.81 = 3m of water.
Poil = 0.8*9.81*2.5 = 19.62 KN/m2.
Ptotal = Patm + Poil.
Ptotal = 19.62 + 9.81 = 29.43 KN/m2.
P in-term of water = 29.43/9.81 = 3m of water.

1000/(1000+2.5*0.8) = 3.

p*ATM = 0.1 kg/cm*2 = 1000 kg/m*2 = 9810 N/m*2.
p*oil = 19620 N/m*2 (after calculation).
Total pressure = 29430 N/m*2.
Hence, h*water = 29430/9810 = 3 m of water.

P = $gh.
Pressure for oil = 0.8*1000*9.81*2.5 = 19620 n/m^2.
Pressure for water = 1000*9.81*h = 19620.
H1 = 19620/9810 = 2 m.
H2 = atmospheric head = p/$g.
H2 = 1000*9.81/1000*9.81= 1 m.
Total head = H1+H2 = 2+1 = 3 m (Answer).

From Basic Hydro static principle (FM text book by Frank m White).
P = Pa-Gamma (Z2-Z1).
Where Pa = Atmospheric pressure in n/m2 Z1 = 0 (Reference surface) and Z2 = negative downwards.
= (0.98 n/m2-7848(-2.5)).
= 19620.8 pa.
H = (19620.8/(1000*9.81)) = 2 m of water.
P = Pa-Gamma (Z2-Z1).
Where Pa = Atmospheric pressure in n/m2 Z1 = 0 (Reference surface) and Z2 = negative downwards.
= (0.98 n/m2-7848(-2.5)).
= 19620.8 pa.
H = (19620.8/(1000*9.81)) = 2 m of water.

Initial pressure is 1000 kg/m^2.
Pressure at 2.5 m depth is 19620 kg/m^2.
Total pressure at a depth 2.5 m is = 19620+1000 = 20620 kg/m^2.
Depth in terms of water = 20620/(1000*9.81) = 2.1 m.
Pressure at 2.5 m depth is 19620 kg/m^2.
Total pressure at a depth 2.5 m is = 19620+1000 = 20620 kg/m^2.
Depth in terms of water = 20620/(1000*9.81) = 2.1 m.

Total pressure = ((.1*10^4)/1000)+(.8*2.5) = 3.
