8. A triangle of height H and base B is vertically submerged in a liquid. The base B coincides with the liquid surface. Derive the relation that will give the location of the center of pressure. 9. The upper edge of a vertical trapezoidal gate is 1.60m long and flush with the water surface. The two edges are vertical and measure 2m and 3m, respectively. Calculate the force and location of the center of pressure on one side of the gate. 10. How far below the water surface is it necessary to immerse a vertical plane surface, 1m square, two edges of which are horizontal, so that the center of pressure will be located 2.50cm below the center of gravity?
