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.
