A square lamina (each side equal to 2m) is submerged vertically in water such that the upper edge of the lamina is at a depth of 0.5 m from the water surface. If the pressure on the surface is 12 bar, what will be the total water pressure (in kN) on the lamina?

A square lamina (each side equal to 2m) is submerged vertically in water such that the upper edge of the lamina is at a depth of 0.5 m from the water surface. If the pressure on the surface is 12 bar, what will be the total water pressure (in kN) on the lamina? Correct Answer 64

Total liquid pressure on the lamina = F = γyA, where γ = specific weight of the liquid, y = depth of centroid of the lamina from the free surface, A= area of the centroid. Now, γ = 9.81 * 103 N / m3; A = 2 * 2 = 4 m2. Hence, F = 63.65 kN.

Given below are three quantities named 1, 2 and 3. Based on the given information, you have to determine the relationship between the three quantities. You should use the given data and knowledge of Mathematics to choose between the possible answer. Quantity 1: Area of the innermost square. A square is made by joining the midpoints of a square of area 200 sq. m. The outermost square is called Square 1, The square inside it is called Square 2. The next square is made by joining midpoints of square 2 and is called Square 3. This process goes on. Square 5 is the innermost square. Quantity 2: A man starts with a speed of 10 km/hr. He increases his speed by 10 km/hr every hour at the start and drives at the same speed for that hour. If he traveled a total distance of 550 km. Find the time Quantity 3: Height of cylinder Its volume is equal to the volume of a cone whose radius is 14 cm and height is 39.3 cm. The radius of the cylinder is 14 cm
Let G be a simple undirected graph. Let TD be a depth first search tree of G. Let TB be a breadth first search tree of G. Consider the following statements. (I) No edge of G is a cross edge with respect to TD. (A cross edge in G is between two nodes neither of which is an ancestor of the other in TD .) (II) For every edge (u, v) of if u is at depth i and v is at depth j in TB , then |? − ?| = 1. Which of the statements above must necessarily be true?
A structure is supported by a triangular structure which can withstand a certain weight in a particular configuration depending upon their surface area. The structure which is to be balanced is a square and triangles are kept on their base in a line such that the total length of the bases is equal to the side of square. There are total 15 such lines with some space in between and each line has 10 triangles. The square, weighing 50 kg and 10 m side, is balanced 3m above the ground. What is weight on per unit area of triangles?
Six identical cards are placed on a table. Each card has the number ‘1’ marked on one side and the number ‘2’ marked on its other side. All the six cards are placed in such a manner that the number ‘1’ is on the upper side. In one try, exactly four (neither more nor less) cards are turned upside down. In how many least number of tries can the cards be turned upside down such that all the six cards show the number ‘2’ on the upper side?
The location of centre of pressure, which defines the point of application of the total pressure force on the surface, can be calculated by applying the principle of moments according to which "sum of the moment of the resultant force about an axis is equal to the sum of the components about the same axis". The centre of pressure of a rectangular surface (of width 'w') immersed vertically in a static mass of fluid is at a depth of(where, y = depth of the liquid)
