A rectangular plate surface 3m wide and 5m deep lies in fluid of specific gravity .9 such that its plane makes an angle of 45⁰ with water surface, upper edge 3m below free water surface. Determine the total pressure.
A rectangular plan surface 5 m wide and 7 m deep lies in water in such a way that its plane makes an angle 60⁰ with the free surface of water. Determine the total pressure force when the upper edge is 3 m below the free surface.
A circular plate 5.0 m diameter is immersed in such a way that its greatest and least depth below the free surface are 3 m and 1 m respectively. determine the position of the centre of pressure.
For an inclined plate the pressure intensity at every point differs.
The pressure intensity for a horizontal plate is maximum on the surface of the earth and decreases as we move further away from the surface of the earth either downward or upward.
For an inclined plane for which position, maximum total pressure acts on it.
The total pressure or pressure intensity is zero for any point on inclined surface in space.
In case of spherical bodies with uniform mass distribution, what is the position of center of pressure relative to centre of gravity.
