A U-tube manometer with a small quantity of mercury is used to measure the static pressure difference between two locations A and B on a conical section through which an incompressible fluid flows. At a particular flow rate, the mercury column appears as shown in the figure. The density of mercury is 13699 kg/m3 and g = 9.81 m/s2. Which of the following is correct

1.  Flow direction is A to B and pA – pB = 20 kPa

2.  Flow direction is B to A and pA – pB = 1.4 kPa

3.  Flow direction is A to B and pB – pA = 20 kPa

4.  Flow direction is B to A and pB – pA = 1.4 kPa

A reversible thermodynamic cycle containing only three processes and producing work is to be constructed. The constraints are: (i) there must be one isothermal process, (ii) there must be one isentropic process, (iii) the maximum and minimum cycle pressures and the clearance volume are fixed, and (iv) polytrophic processes are not allowed. Then the numbers of possible cycles are
