DCC50222 Hydraulics: Topic 1-Hydrostatics Forces On Surfaces

This document discusses hydrostatics and hydrostatic forces. It defines hydrostatics as the study of fluids at rest and introduces key concepts like center of gravity and center of pressure. Hydrostatic forces are defined using the formula FH = ρ g ý A, where ρ is fluid density, g is acceleration due to gravity, and A is cross-sectional area. Contact information is provided at the end for further discussion.
