Incompressible Fluid
Changes in are caused either by a change in or g . For
most engineering applications the variation in g is negligible, so
our main concern is with the possible variation in the fluid
density. For liquids the variation in density usually negligible so
that the assumption of constant specific weight when dealing
with liquids is good one.

The magnitude of the resultant force can be found by summing
these differential forces over entire surface.
(3.17)
The integral is the first moment of the area with respect to the x axis
or (3.18)
The moment of the resultant force must equal the moment of the
distributed pressure force, or
Therefore,
The integral is the second moment of the area with respect to axis
formed by the intersection of the plane surface and the free surface.
Thus, (3.19)
