A trough whose cross section is a trapezoid is b = 6

 

A trough whose cross section is a trapezoid is b = 6 m across at the bottom, a = 8 m across at the top, and 2 m deep. If the trough is filled to 1 m with water, what is the force due to water pressure on one end of the trough? a F = b (Hint: Using SI units, pg = 9800 N/m.) (Use decimal notation. Give your answer to two decimal places.) N
