A large aquarium of height 5.00 m is filled with fresh water to a depth of 2.00 m. One wall of the aquarium consists of thick plastic 9.00 m wide. By how much does the total force on that wall increase if the aquarium is next filled to a depth of 4.00 m?

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to calculate the increase in the total force on the wall of the aquarium when the water level rises from 2.00 m to 4.00 m. The force exerted by the water on the wall can be calculated using the hydrostatic pressure formula. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Problem:** - The aquarium has a height of 5.00 m and is initially filled with water to a depth of 2.00 m. - The width of the wall is 9.00 m. - We need to find the increase in force when the water level is raised to 4.00 m. ...
