a.
Explain to approximate the force against the end of the tank by a Reimann sum.
a.
Answer to Problem 15E
Explanation of Solution
Given information: The vertical end of a tank containing water weighing
Shape- Triangle.
Calculation:
Divide your triangle into k partitions so that you have thin horizontal strips. Multiply each strip by water pressure. Add everything up.
Hence,
