Partially Immersed Fully Immersed
1- Set the water tank as a level We will make same steps
(horizontally) by make the of partially immersed,
bubble in the center. but in this part, we add
2- Close the drain valve and water until Fully

3- Put a weight on the
balance pan, and
slowly add water
into the tank until the
balance arm is

answer the following Questions :
1. Does the derivation of equation of the static forces depend on whether the fluid
is viscous or not? Explain briefly.
No; it doesn’t dependent.
Because we are dealing with a static force Whereas viscosity depends on dynamic

What is the effect of water depth on the distance between center of pressure
and center of area?

3. What is the maximum and minimum deference between raw (3) & raw (4) in the
calculation tables , at what depth do you think your results become more accurate , and
why ?
Partially Fully
Max. difference 0.00655 0.26736
Min. difference 0.00654 0.23173
○ I think your results become more accurate at depth of Water
4. If because there is an error in leveling the apparatus, the water surface was inclined by x°
from the horizontal .How this affects your Results ?
At angle = 90 sin (90) = 1
At angle = 100 or 80 Sin (80) =0.98, sin (100) = 0.98
Therefore, the max value at angle 90, when we take moment at point O at
other angels the reading of moment will be decrease
5. Even there are surfaces other than the torrid rectangular surface are affected by
hydrostatic forces, why they are omitted from the calculations?
. Because this force acting on the same path line of pivot; means no has
vertical distance between it and the point that I will take Sum of moment
equal zero in it; so it not effect on a rotation of the device
6. Write down any other comments not included in the previous question
y= Depth of water
In this experiment,
○ We learnt how to determine the center of pressure and center of area and learnt
the different between them.
○ We are dealing on static force just and not depend on the viscosity.
○ If I have an error in leveling, it means that effect on the results.
○ The difference between Ft & Fp small ; the slop closer to 1
