Explanation Given information: The arbitrary depth d = y sin θ . Calculation: Calculate the moment of inertia about x axis as follows: I x = ∫ y 2 d A Calculate the moment of inertia about y axis as follows: I y = ∫ x y d A Find the pressure ( p ) at an arbitrary depth as shown below: p = γ ( y sin θ ) Find the hydrostatic force ( d P ) exerted on infinitesimal area as follows: d P = ( γ y sin θ ) d A Find the magnitude P resulting force acting on the plane as follows. P = ∫ d P Substitute ( γ y sin θ ) d A for d P . P = ∫ ( γ y sin θ ) d A = γ y ¯ sin θ ∫ d A = γ A y ¯ sin θ p ¯ = γ y ¯ sin θ P = p ¯ A Thus, the resultant of hydrostatic force acting on submerged plane is P = p ¯ A _ Apply the Equivalence of the force and couple and the system of infinitesimal hydrostatic force requires as follows. Show that the coordinate y p as shown below: Summation of moment about x axis. ∑ M x = 0 − y ¯ p P = − ∫ ( y d P ) Substitute ( γ y sin θ ) d A for dP . ∫ ( y d P ) = ∫ y ( γ y sin θ ) d A = γ sin θ ∫ y 2 d A = ( γ sin θ ) I x y p P = ( γ sin θ ) I x y p = ( γ sin θ ) I x γ sin θ ( y ¯ A ) y P = I x A y ¯ Thus, the center of pressure co-ordinate is y P = I x A y ¯ _ . Show that the coordinate x p as shown below: ∑ M y = 0 x p P = ∫ x d P ∫ x d P = ∫ x ( γ y sin θ ) d A = γ sin θ ∫ x y d A Substitute I x y for ∫ x y d A

Axial Load

When a bar of the uniform cross-section is acted by a load, such that the load acts along the longitudinal axis of the bar, such kinds of loadings are known as axial loadings. In general terms, a load is an external force acting on a component. An axial …
