If the tank is full of gasoline with density 47 lb/ft^3, compute the force exerted on one end of the tank. The textbook says that the answer to the above question is 9450 N, but I am not sure how to solve this question to get to that correct answer. (The answer above includes all the information provided in the textbook regarding this question).A fisherman and his buddy climb into a flat-bottomed aluminum fishing boat has a mass of 60 kg and an area of 4.0 m2. When it is launched into the water (density 1,000 kg/m3), the bottom of the boat sinks 0.015m below the surface of the water. If they, along with their gear, have a mass of 300 kg, how much farther (in m) does the boat sink into the water?

Read ItA plank 2.00 cm thick and 15.0 cm wide is firmly attached to the railing of a ship by clamps so that the rest of the board extends 2.00 m horizontally over the sea below. A man of mass 80.0 kg is forced to stand on the very end.

Set up an integral representing the force that the river exerts on the dam if the water level is 6 m above the lowest point of the dam. There is no need to find the value of the force, only the set up of the integral is required, however, all the details are expected.
