3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is the relationship between pressure and depth in a fluid?
Think about how weight is distributed in a fluid.
Define the center of pressure.
Consider the distribution of pressure across the surface.
What is the equation for pressure at a certain depth?
Recall the definition of pressure in a fluid.
True or False: The center of pressure always lies at the centroid of the surface.
Consider how pressure varies with depth.
A rectangular plate is submerged at an angle of θ = 30 degrees with a width of 4 m, and the top edge is at a depth of h = 2 m. Calculate the resultant force and center of pressure for this plate.
Consider the height and area while applying the necessary equations.
An isosceles triangle submerged in a fluid exhibits varying pressure on different edges. Calculate the force on the submerged side if the height is 5 m and the base is 3 m.
Don't forget to consider the changing pressure along the submerged triangle.
