Well, this is suppose to be a fluid force problem, though there are many ways to solve it I'm sure. We're suppose to make use of the fluid force equations. Namely: F=whA and F= the integral of w(strip depth) L(y) dy. w= weight density of liquid L(y)=length of strip A=area

By pressure, are you referring to the fluid force? If so, how would you even go about doing that? As the surface of the fluid is not defined.

Homework Statement This is just a general question. The questions I can't get go something like this: You're given a liquid you plan to store, in a tank, say for this example, a rectangular one with square sides. You're given the max fluid force that the interior walls can withstand, and...
