Choose the wrong statement?
A The horizontal component of the hydro-static force on any surface is equal to the normal force on the vertical projection of the surface
B The horizontal component acts through the center of pressure for the vertical projection
C The vertical component of the hydrostatic force on any surface is equal to the weight of the volume of the liquid above the area
D he vertical component passes through the center of pressure of the volume
Correct Answer: he vertical component passes through the center of pressure of the volume
Choose the wrong statement ?
A any weight, floating or immersed in a liquid, is acted upon by a buoyant force
B Buoyant force is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced
C The point through which buoyant force acts, is called the center of buoyancy
