Q2
Water rises to level E in the pipe attached to tank ABC D in Fig. 3-4. Neglecting the weight of
the tank and riser pipe, (a) determine and locate the resultant force acting on area AB, which is
8 ft wide; (b) compute the total force on the bottom of the tank; and (c) compare the total weight
of the water with the result in (b) and explain the difference.
