Question
A swimming pool is 10 ft wide and 20 ft long and its bottom is an inclined plane, the shallow end having a depth of 3 ft and the deep end, 7 ft. Assume the pool is full of water. (Round your answers to the nearest whole number. Recall that the weight density of water is 62.5 lb/ft³.)

(a) Estimate the hydrostatic force (in lb) on the shallow end.
   - 2,813 lb

(b) Estimate the hydrostatic force (in lb) on the deep end.
   - 15,313 lb

(c) Estimate the hydrostatic force (in lb) on one of the sides.
   - [Blank] lb

(d) Estimate the hydrostatic force (in lb) on the bottom of the pool.
   - [Blank] lb
