ASK YOUR TEACH A swimming pool is 20 ft wide and 40 ft long and its bottom is an inclined plane, the shallow end having a depth of 4 ft and the deep end, 9 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 ib/ft.) (a) Estimate the hydrostatic force on the shallow end 10,000 (b) Estimate the hydrostatic force on the deep end. 50125 (c) Estimate the hydrostatic force on one of the sides. 55833 xh (d) Estimate the hydrostatic force on the bottom of the pool. 325507 хо
Fluid Pressure
The term fluid pressure is coined as, the measurement of the force per unit area of a given surface of a closed container. It is a branch of physics that helps to study the properties of fluid under various conditions of force.
Gauge Pressure
Pressure is the physical force acting per unit area on a body; the applied force is perpendicular to the surface of the object per unit area. The air around us at sea level exerts a pressure (atmospheric pressure) of about 14.7 psi but this doesn’t seem to bother anyone as the bodily fluids are constantly pushing outwards with the same force but if one swims down into the ocean a few feet below the surface one can notice the difference, there is increased pressure on the eardrum, this is due to an increase in hydrostatic pressure.
