A 2-ft-diameter hemispherical plexiglass "bubble" is to be used as a special window on the side of an above-ground swimming pool
. The window is to be bolted onto the vertical wall of the pool and faces outward, covering a 2-ft-diameter opening in the wall. The center of the opening is 5.9 ft below the surface. Determine the (a) horizontal and (b) vertical components of the force of the water on the hemisphere.

Answer:
4 J
Explanation:
From the image attached, we can see 2 horizontal forces acting on the box albeit in opposite directions.
Now, the net force will be;
F_net = 3 - 1
F_net = 2 N
To move a distance of 2 metres, kinetic energy is;
K.E = Force × Distance = 2 × 2 = 4 J
