A plug in the bottom of a pressurized tank is conical in shape, as shown in Fig. P2.121. The air pressure is \(40 \mathrm{kPa}\), and the liquid in the tank has a specific weight of \(27 \mathrm{kN} / \mathrm{m}^{3}\). Determine the magnitude, direction, and line of action of the force exerted on the curved surface of the cone within the tank due to the \(40-\mathrm{kPa}\) pressure and the liquid.
