Question
A tall, open rectangular container is filled with a liquid of density 460 kg/m3. The vertical distance between the bottom of the container and the top of the liquid is 0.76 m. If the base of the container is square shaped with side length 0.06 m, what is the magnitude of the downward force on the bottom of the container? Take the atmospheric pressure to be P0=1.013x105 Pa.
I dont know how to get the downward force.
