7. A large glass beaker is open to the atmosphere (P. = 101,300 Pa) and filled with water of density of 1100 kg /m. Use g = 10 m/s to simplify the calculation. If the total pressure at the bottom of the container is 106,750 Pa. a) Calculate the height of the water. b) What force would a surface that has an area of 0.06 m experience?

Show that the total force on a rectangular dam due to the water behind it increases with the square of the water depth. In particular, show that this force is given by F=gh2L/2 , where is the density of water, h is its depth at the dam, and L is the length of the dam. You may assume the face of the dam is vertical. (Hint: Calculate the average pressure exerted and multiply this by the area in contact with the water. (See Figure 11.42.)
