1. For each water level, h, use your measurements to estimate the hydrostatic force on the wall theoretically as follows: a. Determine the distance between the hydrostatic force and the pivot point (as a function of your measured water depth h) with the formula 1 th=200- - =h W b. Using your measured weight W, and measured distance to the pivot point fw, perform a moment balance (M = 0) about the pivot point and solve for the experimental hydrostatic force, Fex Fexfth = Wew a. 2. Repeat the process above, but this time, use it to estimate the location of the hydrostatic force as follows: Determine the hydrostatic force theoretically, Ft. Here, you'll need to use your measured width of the container (w) b. 1 Fth = pghw Using your measured weight W, and measured distance to the pivot point fw, perform a moment balance (M = 0) about the pivot point and solve for the experimental location of the hydrostatic force, lex Fehlex = Wew == 1.
