Question

do not do the frist one plz 

1. What is the pressure at the bottom of Sunfish Pond, which has a depth of 350 feet?
2. A swimming pool has depths of 4.0 feet and 12.0 feet at the shallow and deep ends,
respectively. Find the pressure in Ib/ft? at each end.
3. A reservoir of water is connected to a 12-inch-diameter pipe that is 50 feet long and capped at
the end. The water surface elevation of the reservoir is 82.5 feet, and the capped end of the
pipe is at elevation 38.0 feet. Find the pressure in psf at the capped end of the pipe.
4. A cylindrical container of water measures 1.75 feet in diameter. The water depth is 8.50 feet.
Find the pressure on the bottom surface.
5. In the swimming pool shown below, determine the resultant hydrostatic force and locate the
center of pressure on surface AB. Width=10.0 ft.
