A barge in the form of a closed rectangular tank 15 m long by 3 m wide floats in water. If the bottom is 1.8m below the surface, what is the water force on one long side and at what level below the surface does it act? If a uniform pressure of 40 kN m-2 is applied inside the barge, what will be the new magnitude and point of action of the resultant force on the side? The deck is 0.3m above the water level.

Example 1.4: The barge sketched below has a rectangular planform (26.7 m long, 10 m wide) and is 3 m deep. Its weight is W4450 kN, and G is located 4 m above the bottom of the barge as sketched. i) Find the metacentric height for a rotation about the longitudinal axis and determine whether the barge is stable. ii) Determine the restoring moment if the barge is rotated by an angle A0-10% 1 3 m 26.7 m Example 1.4:...
2.105 An open rectangular tank is 2 m wide and 4 m long. The tank contains water to a depth of 2 m and oil (SG = 0.8) on top of the water to a depth of 1 m. Determine the magnitude and location of the resultant fluid force acting on one end of the tank.
4. A rectangular tank water (width 14.0m, length 14.0m, and height 20 m) is filled with water and open to the atmosphere. The water level in the tank is 1 m below the top of the tank. This tank sits upon a platform of height h. If the water tank is plugged at the bottom so no water is flowing, what is the resultant force exerted by the water on the bottom face of the container? What is the resultant...
A rectangular tank 6 m long, 2 m broad, and 2 m deep is full of water. Find the force on the bottom, on one broad side, and one end side. (Hint: find the average pressure on the sides.)
A barge floating in fresh water (Q = 1000 kg/m) is shaped like a hollow rectangular prism with base area A = 750 m2 and height H=2.0 m. When empty the bottom of the barge is located Ho=0.55 m below the surface of the water. When fully loaded with coal the bottom of the barge is located H=1.05 m below the surface. Part (a) Select the correct free-body diagram for the barge when it is empty.Part (b) Write an equation for...
