Lecture5 Hydrostatic Force on a Plane Surface
Hydrostatic Force on a Plane Surface Henryk Kudela When a surface is submerged in a fluid, forces develop on the surface due to the fluid. The determination of these forces is important in the design of storage tanks, ships,

The results are the two laws of buoyancy discovered by Archimedes in the third century B.C.: 1. a body immersed in a fluid experiences a vertical buoyant force equal to the weight of the fluid it displaces.
