Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Calculate the total hydrostatic force acting on a submerged rectangular surface of 2m x 5m at a depth of 3m, considering water density is 1000 kg/m³ and g = 9.81 m/s².
💡 Hint: Break down the calculation into parts: find the pressure, then multiply it by the area.
Question 2
You have a vertical submerged wall with a depth of 4m. How do you find the center of pressure? Why is it below the centroid?
💡 Hint: Consider that the weight of the water contributes more force at deeper sections.
