Question 1

What is the resultant force needed to open a hydraulic gate?

  • Pressure multiplied by area
  • Only the weight of the gate
  • Pressure at the bottom only

💡 Hint: Think about fluid properties.

Question 2

True or False: The buoyant force always equals the weight of the object.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Remember the principle of flotation.

Question 1

A rectangular pool has dimensions 10m x 5m x 1m filled with water. Calculate the force exerted by the water on the bottom of the pool and the depth of water.

💡 Hint: Consider how pressure increases with depth.

Question 2

An elliptical gate is submerged in water at a depth of 4m with a semi-major axis of 2m and semi-minor axis of 1m. Calculate the resultant force acting on the gate.

💡 Hint: Remember to include the pressure at the centroid.
