The system consists of a pipe with a diameter of 0.05m and a length of 4 m, and a hemisphere (radius 2 m) opened to the atmosphere, and the weight of the system is 50 kN. The lower part of the system is filled with water and the upper part with oil. The system is fixed to the base with 6 bolts. Calculate the force to be covered by each bolt required to hold the system (Note: oil 6867 N/m3, water = 9810 N/m3). (Please explain the answer)..........
