Question 1

What is the resultant force on a submerged surface directly proportional to?

  • Area
  • Depth
  • Both Area and Depth

💡 Hint: Recall how pressure is affected by both these factors.

Question 2

True or False: The center of pressure is always at the centroid.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider how pressure acts differently at various points.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A triangular plate with a base of 2 m and height of 3 m is submerged at an angle. Calculate the resultant force acting on it and determine the location of the center of pressure.

💡 Hint: Approach by breaking down the height increments.

Question 2

You have a circular gate submerged in water at a depth of 5 m. Calculate the total force acting on the gate as well as the center of pressure. Dimensions of the gate are radius 1 m.

💡 Hint: Think about how the circle simplifies the integration for circular sections.
