Pressure at a point
Determine the total force on a wall of an open tank 2m wide containing fuel oil of density 924 kgm-3 at a depth of2 m.
Solution
To determine the pressure at a point in the static liquid below the free surface, consider the equilibrium forces on a wedge-shaped element of the liquid.
