A square plate having one of its side equal to 3m. is immersed in a water surface in a vertical position such that the two edges of the square would be horizontal in order that the center of pressure shall be 8cm. from the center of gravity. A.) How far below the water surface should the upper plate be submerged? B.) What is the distance of the center of pressure from the water surface? C.) Determine the hydrostatic force acting on the plate at this position.
