The answer is 11 5/20 but simplified it is 11 1/4
Answer:
Hydrostatic Force = 35.28KN
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, let's consider integrating the hydrostatic force from the top of the triangle to the bottom.
Formula for a thin horizontal slice of the triangle the force is;
δF=ρgxwδx
Where w is width of triangle; ρ is density of water and g is acceleration due to gravity
At depth x, the width of the triangle is w=2/3x.
Thus, F = (3,0)∫)ρgxwδx
=(2/3)ρg[(3,0)∫)x²δx]
= integrating, we have;
F = (2/3)ρg[(3³/3) - (0³/3)]
F = (2/5)ρg [27/3] = (2/5)(1000)(9.8)(9) = 35280 N = 35.28 KN
Think of ratios as fractions.
5:8 is the same as 5/8
6:7 is the same as 6/7
Divide each fraction
5/8 = 0.625
6/7 = 0.857
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
0.857 > 0.625 ∴ 6:7 is greater, and is your answer
