A vertical plate in the shape of a rectangle is submerged in water. The top of the rectangle is 4 feet below the surface of water. The rectangle has a height of 6 feet and a width of 2 feet. Draw a diagram (with a depth chart), express the hydrostatic force against one side as an integral, and evaluate it. Hint: Let 8 = 62.5 lb/ft?
