A closed tank is filled with water and has a 4-ft-diameter
hemispherical dome as shown in the figure below. A U-tube manometer
is connected to the tank. Determine the vertical force of the water
on the dome if the differential manometer reading is 7 ft and the
air pressure at the upper end of the manometer is 13.6 psi.
Setting up the manometer equation, I found the pressure in the closed tank to be 2894.4 lb/ft^2, but when doing the equation to find the vertical force, I got a value of 17140.529 lb which is wrong. Isn't the force F = PA - W? Brief explanations are well appreciated!
