1. OBJECTIVE/SThis activity aims to determine the hydrostatic force on a submerged and semi-submerged
rectangular area.
2. APPARATUS AND SUPPLIESApparatus (see figures 6.b):
Center of Pressure ApparatusHydraulics Bench
Supplies (see figures 6.c):Tap Water
3. PROCEDURE1. Set up the apparatus.2. Place a mass of approximately 50 grams on the balance weight holder.3. Open pump delivery valve and allow water into the tank until balance arm is
horizontal, then close the pump delivery valve.4. Read height of water level on the scale of torroid.5. Repeat steps (3) and (4) for various values of weight in the balance pan in about eight
steps up to 400 grams6. Stop hydraulic bench pump7. Disconnect supply hose and allow apparatus to drain
CLEANING PROCEDURE1. Stop hydraulic bench pump2. Disconnect supply hose and allow apparatus to drain3. Carefully wipe the apparatus dry with a soft cloth.
