Consider a plane, vertical area A below the surface of a liquid. Let p0 be the pressure at the surface.
(a) Show that the force exerted by pressure on the area is , where is the pressure of the liquid at the centroid of the area.
(b) Show that the x coordinate of the center of pressure is
where Iy' is the moment of inertia of the area about the y' axis through its centroid.
