Question

An open rectangular settling tank contains a liquid suspension

that at a given time has a specific weight that varies approximately

with depth according to the following data:

h(m)     Specific Weight(N/m^3 )

0         10.0

0.4     10.1

0.8     10.2

1.2     10.6

1.6     11.3

2.0     12.3

2.4     12.7

2.8     12.9

3.2     13.0

3.6     13.1

The depth h 0 corresponds to the free surface. Determine, by

means of numerical integration, the magnitude and location of the

resultant force that the liquid suspension exerts on a vertical wall of

the tank that is 6 m wide. The depth of fluid in the tank is 3.6 m.
