Document Summary
Question #3 (medium): hydrostatic force on a partially submerged vertical plate. The hydrostatic force is given by the depth below the surface, the area of the thin th strip. A vertical plate that is partially submerged in water has the shape shown by the diagram. Express the hydrostatic force against one side of the place by a riemann sum as well as an integral, and then evaluate it. [a upside down trapezoid with top side of and bottom side of , height h with emerged in water] The units are given in variables, therefore is kept as it is. , the depth be determined based on the similar triangle ratio:
