FORMAT Exactly Procedure Data section Curves Conclusions Significant figures

Housekeeping
Return equipment to proper storage after use. Clean up spills and litter.

Fluid Statics

Forces on submerged surfaces considered by design engineer Retaining walls Dams Tanks Weirs

Fluid Statics
Forces acting on surfaces restraining liquid. Normal force acting on surface Horizontal Vertical

Fluid statics
Liquid at rest: F = 0 Horizontal: equal in all directions Vertical: dependent on depth F = (PA)2+ W - (PA)1 W = Ah P = h

Fluid Statics

constant for incompressible fluid Pressure prism Resultant force Direction Magnitude Point of application

Fluid statics
F = YcA Ycp = Yc + (Ic/ YcA)

Lab
M = 0 (h + H) Fs = D Fw Vs P = h

Buoyancy
Archimedes Fb = FVo Compare volume calculated from buoyancy vs measured volume.
