PROBLEM # 2
A 2-in. diameter cylinder is floating vertically in seawater with 75% of its volume submerged. If
the specific gravity of seawater is 1.03, estimate the density of the cylinder in kg/m.
A tank that weighs 5kg is filled with 3 liquids shown below. What is the force at the bottom of the seawater (S.G. = 1.3) if the diameter of the tank is 2m?
PROBLEMS
1. A vertical parabolic plate whose height is 2 meters is submerged in a certain liquid (s.g. = 1.50) and its base
b is with the liquid surface (L.S.). Draw the figure and determine the magnitude and location of hydrostatic
force Fp acting perpendicular to the plate if its base is two-third of its height.
