Question
2- A tank containing water is shown in Fig.
Calculate the total resultant force acting
on side ABCD of the container and the
6 ft
location of the center of pressure.
IF
62.4 Ib/ft3
Y =
Water
B
-20 ft
3- Find the total pressure and position of center of pressure
FREE WATER SURFACE
on a triangular plate of base 2 m and height 3 m which is
60
2.5
immersed in water in such a way that the plane of the plate
-2 m-
makes an angle of 60 with the free surface of the water.
.3
The base of the plate is parallel to water surface and at a
depth of 2.5 m from water surface.
