thanks so much! i also discovered that the total force after integration will eventually be F = ½ρgh2C thanks!

now one last question ( sorry for asking too much) why did he used the midpoint of the barrels height to calculate the "average pressure" ? shouldn't he just integrated it from the ∫ρgh*2πr*dh all the wayy to the bottom? or would it just yield the same result?

The only thing i am confused now is that isn't the water inside the barrel also contributes to the force exerted to the sides of the barrel?

Ah, i forgot to mention that the barrel is filled with water on a flat foor on sea level, and it is closed.

Hello! I've been confused about fluid statics, to be more specific, about the hydrostatic pressure. supposedly i have a cylindrical barrel of height h and radius of r: (a). if i were to calculate the total Force inside the barrel, do i use the (Force on the lid + Force on the Sides + Force on...
