To determine
The magnitude of the hydrostatic force acting per meter length of the wall (FR) .

Answer to Problem 17FP

The magnitude of the hydrostatic force acting per meter length of the wall (FR) is 177kN_ .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The density of the water (ρw) is 1Mg/m3 .

The height of wall (h) is 6 m.

Explanation:

Determine the loading intensity wb of the wall.

wb=ρwghb  (I)

Here, the acceleration due to gravity is g and the width of the wall is b.

Determine the magnitude of the hydrostatic force FR acting per meter length of the wall.

FR=12wb(h)  (II)

Conclusion:

Substitute 1Mg/m3 for ρw , 9.81m/s2 for g, 6 m for h, and 1 m for b in Equation (I).

wb=(1Mg/m3)(9.81m/s2)(6m)1=(1Mg/m3×1,000kg/m3Mg/m3)(9.81m/s2)(6m)1m=58,860kgm3×ms2×m2=58,860kgms2×1m×1Nkgms2

=58.860kNm

Substitute 58.860kNm for wb and 6 m for h in Equation (II).

FR=12(58.860kNm)(6m)=177kN

Thus, the magnitude of the hydrostatic force acting per meter length of the wall (FR) is 177kN_ .
