Question 1 Consider a heavy car submerged in water in a lake with a flat bottom. The driver's side door of the car is 1.3 m high and 0.95 m wide, and the top edge of the door is 11 m below the water surface. Determine the net force acting on the door (normal to its surface) and the location of the pressure center if the car is well-sealed and it contains air at atmospheric pressure. (7 marks)
