In this video, I will show you how to calculate the hydrostatic force using Calculus 2. I go through many examples where the object submerged in the water is a rectangle, trapezoid, triangle, and circle, and we have to calculate the force created by the hydrostatic pressure on one side of this object. This video shows you the calculus formula to calculate hydrostatic force which involves integrals and the answer or the force will be in Newtons or pounds,.
So that's it for calculating the hydrostatic fluid force using integral calculus. In the next video, I will show you how to calculate the moments and the center of gravity or mass and the centroid of shapes.
