Specific Weight of Liquid given Total Hydrostatic Force Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Specific Weight 1 = Hydrostatic Force/(Depth of Centroid*Wet Surface Area)
γ₁ = F_hs/(h_G*A_wet)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Specific Weight 1 - (Measured in Newton per Cubic Meter) - Specific weight 1 is the specific weight of the fluid 1.
Hydrostatic Force - (Measured in Newton) - Hydrostatic force is equal to the product of the area of the surface and the unit pressure at its center of gravity.
Depth of Centroid - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Centroid below the free surface.
Wet Surface Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - Wet Surface Area is the surface area of horizontal wetted plane.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Hydrostatic Force: 121 Newton --> 121 Newton No Conversion Required
Depth of Centroid: 0.32 Meter --> 0.32 Meter No Conversion Required
Wet Surface Area: 0.56 Square Meter --> 0.56 Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

γ₁ = F_hs/(h_G*A_wet) --> 121/(0.32*0.56)

Evaluating ... ...

γ₁ = 675.223214285714

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

675.223214285714 Newton per Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

675.223214285714 ≈ 675.2232 Newton per Cubic Meter <-- Specific Weight 1
