Problem (5): A tank of depth (h) containing two different liquids with specific gravities (S1) and (S2), respectively, is to be designed so that its side walls are inclined at an angle (a). Given the values of S [-], and S2 [-], calculate the percentage ratio between the hydrostatic pressure forces on the part of the side wall in contact with liquid 1 to that in contact with liquid 2 (F1/F2) [%]. Hint: you don't need to know (h) and (a) to solve the problem for the shown case (since the interface is at h/2). Liquid 1 Liquid 2 F2 F1 h/2 h/2
