Hydrostatic Forces on Plane Surfaces
1. The tank shown contains water to a depth of 3 m. Determine the
resultant force, and its location, that the water pressure creates
both on the side of ABCD of the tank and on its bottom.
2. The gate in the figure is 1.5 m wide, is hinged at point B, and
rests against a smooth wall at point A. Compute
a) the force on the gate due to seawater pressure,
b) the horizontal force P exerted by the wall at point A , and
c) the reactions at the hinge B.

3. A storage tank contains 3 layers of liquids as shown. A 0.5-m-


thick layer of SAE 30 oil overlays a 0.6-m layer of water, which
overlays a 0.65-m layer of glycerin. All liquids are at 20◦C. The
wall of the tank is 2-m long. Estimate the magnitude and location
of the resultant force on the wall of the tank.

Where:
M = Metacenter
G = Center of Gravity
Bo = Center of Buoyancy
16.03 BUOYANCY VDF = Volume of Displaced Fluid
In science, buoyancy (also known as upthrust) is an upward force MBo = Distance from the Metacenter to the Center of Buoyancy
exerted by a fluid that opposes the weight of an immersed object. MG = Metacentric Height
D = Depth of draft
ARCHIMEDES’ PRINCIPLE B = Length of base (rectangular)
Archimedes' principle indicates that the upward buoyant force that is Θ = Angle of tilt
exerted on a body immersed in a fluid, whether fully or partially
submerged, is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces. SITUATION. A rectangular barge has a draft of 1.8 meter when fully
loaded and floating in an upright position. The barge is 7.6 m. wide and
12.8 m. long and a height of 3 m. The center of gravity of the barge is
0.30 m. above the water surface if the barge is stable.

a. Determine the distance of the metacenter above the center of


buoyancy.

b. Determine the metacentric height.

c. What is the righting moment in water when the angle of heel is


2°?

1. An iceberg having a specific gravity of 0.92 is floating on salt water of


specific gravity of 1.03. If the volume of ice above the water surface is
1000m^3, what is the total volume of the ice?

2. A stone weighs 460N in air. When submerged in water, it weighs 300N.


Find the volume and specific gravity of the stone.
