3. As shown, a round viewing window of diameter D=D0.8m is situated in a large tank of seawater (S=1.03) The top of the window is 1.2m below the water surface, and the window is angled at 60° with respect to the horizontal. Find the hydrostatic force acting on the window and locate the corresponding CP. Window Sea water 60°
