A cylindrical tank is resting horizontally on the ground (the circular faces are vertical). The tank is half full with liquid with density p. If the radius of the cylinder's base is 3 meters, set up the integral which describes the total force exerted on each of the circular walls of the tank. No need to compute the value of this integral. Use the reference frame in which we set y=0 at the water's surface, and "down" is the positive direction.
