A reservoir dam has a vertical surface in contact with the water that is 141 m wide and 15.5 m high. Air pressure is one atmosphere. If the reservoir is completely filled, determine the magnitude of the net force acting on the dam. (Hint: Since the pressure varies linearly with depth, you will need to use your knowledge of calculus in order to determine the force on the dam due to water. Use 1.00 x 103 kg/m3 for the density of water.) 238328775 x How are pressure, force, and area related? Does the atmosphere exert a force on both sides of the dam? How can you incorporate the fact that the fluid pressure and hence force varies with fluid depth? N
