Solve Problem 2.45 if the isosceles triangle is replaced with a right triangle having the same base width and altitude as the isosceles triangle.
Problem 2.45
An area in the form of an isosceles triangle with a base width of 6 ft and an altitude of 8 ft lies in the plane forming one side of a tank that contains a liquid having a specific weight of79.8 lb/ft3. The side slopes upward, making an angle of 60° with the horizontal. The base of the triangle is horizontal and the vertex is above the base. Determine the resultant force the fluid exertson the area when the fluid depth is 20 ft above the base of the triangular area. Show, with the aid of a sketch, where the center of pressure is located.
