Question

Consider a rectangular tank of size L cross times b  filled with a liquid of density d to a height h as shown. text  If  end text F subscript 1 text  and  end text F subscript 2 text  are the forces applied by the liquid on the base and on the vertical wall  end text F subscript 1 over F subscript 2 equals

  1. L over h
  2. L over b
  3. fraction numerator 2 L over denominator h end fraction
  4. fraction numerator 2 L over denominator b end fraction

The correct answer is: fraction numerator 2 L over denominator h end fraction


    F subscript 1 equals rho g h left parenthesis L b right parenthesis
text  If we consider a strip of width  end text dy text  at depth  end text straight y comma text  area of the strip  end text equals stack straight b left parenthesis straight d with _ below straight y right parenthesis
text  Now  end text F subscript 1 over F subscript 2 equals fraction numerator 2 L over denominator h end fraction
