A closed tank whose bottom is 18 inches in diameter is filled with three liquids: 4 inches of carbon tetrachloride (SG=1.59), 2 inches of water and 12 inches of syrup (SG=1.31). The air chamber in the tank is pressurized at 1296 psf. Apply the PANEL EQUATIONS to determine the magnitude, direction and location of the total hydrostatic force acting at the bottom of the tank.
