2 Pascal’s Principle
An Olympic swimming pool is 50 m long, 25 m wide, and 2 mdeep.
(a) Make a plot of pressure as a function of depth in the pool, for0 ≤ y ≤ 2 m.
(b) What is the pressure on the bottom of the pool?
(c) What is the total force on the bottom of the pool — the 25 m ×50 m surface?
(d) What is the total force on one end of the pool — one of the 25m × 2 m surfaces?
(e) What is the total force on one side of the pool — one of the 50m × 2 m surfaces?
