Explanation & Answer

Thank you for the opportunity to help you with your question!

PA=Patm+density*g*h

oil's specific gravity is 0.6

density of oil=0.6*1000kg/m^3=600kg/m^3

PA=1.103*10^5+600*9.8*0.33=112240.4Pa

PB=112240.4Pa+1000*9.8*0.22=114396.4 Pa


Please let me know if you need any clarification. I'm always happy to answer your questions.
