Solution

Step 1 of 5)

The first step in solving 8 problem number 94 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: A vertical plate is submerged (or partially submerged) in water and has the indicated shape. Explain how to approximate the hydrostatic force against one side of the plate by a Riemann sum. Then express the force as an integral and evaluate it.
From the textbook chapter FURTHER APPLICATIONS OF INTEGRATION you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
