Find the total force on a semi-circle (half-circle) shaped dam where the top of the dam is the diameter of the circle, and the diameter of the circle is 12 m. The water rises to the top of the dam. Set up the integral needed to solve the problem, but do not integrate. (Hint: The density of water is 1000 kg/m3 , and g = 9.8 m/s2 .)

A dam on a river is built so that the wall facing the water is shaped like the region above the curve y=0.3 x^4 and below the line y= 140 . (Here, distances are measured in meters.) The water level is 20 meters below the top of the dam. Find the force (in Newtons) exerted on the dam by water pressure. (Water has a density of 1000 "kg"/m^3, and the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/sec^2 .)

Problem 18.87 Drops of an oil that has a mass density of 700 kg/m3 are released from a broken undersea oil pipe that is 1200 m below the ocean surface. Use 1000 kg/m3 for the mass density of ocean water. Part A If the drops have an average diameter of 100 μm, how long do they take to rise to the surface? Hint: The drops quickly reach terminal speed and experience a viscous drag force of magnitude Fdwo=(0.0200Pa⋅s)Rv, where R...

The curator of a science museum is transporting a chunk of meteorite iron (i.e., a piece of iron that fell from the sky -- see picture at left) from one part of the museum to another. Since the chunk of iron weighs 1240 N and is too big for her to lift by herself, she is using a hand cart (see figure at right). While passing through the marine mammals section of the museum, she accidentally hits a bump and...
