Question
The Deligne Dam on the Cayley River is built so that the wall facing the water is shaped like the region
above the curve y =
0.8x2 and below the line
140. (Here, distances are measured in meters.) The
y
water level is 26 meters below the top of the dam. Find the force (in Newtons) exerted on the dam by
kg
water pressure. (Water has a density of 1000
m
, and the acceleration of gravity is 9.8
