Fluid Mechanics: Mahalingam4 Lecture #7 - continued Hydrostatic forces on submerged surfaces - Begin by considering forces on planar surfaces - Basic ideas are the same when considering curved surfaces Planar surface analysis Goal To find magnitude of force on a planar surface submerged in a fluid To find location of net force or Center of Pressure
