Fluid Mechanics Exam# (Illustrate Free Body Pressure Distribution Where Applicable) G) Find The Pressure at Point A in The in The Figure Below

1. The document contains three fluid mechanics problems involving pressure distributions, forces on submerged objects, and forces in pipes. 2. The first problem asks to find the pressure at point A in a tank with a trapezoidal cross-section. 3. The second problem involves calculating the weight of water and resultant force on the bottom of an open tank with a trapezoidal cross-section. 4. The third problem requires determining the magnitude and location of the resultant force exerted by water on a curved section of a partially filled pipe.
