For a vertical plane surface submerged in a liquid, which formula correctly yields the distance (d) of the centre of pressure from the free surface of the liquid? Where: IG = Moment of inertia of the area about an axis passing through its C.G. and parallel to the free surface A = Total area of the surface h = Distance of the C.G. of the area from the free surface of the liquid
- 1d = (IG / Ah) + ρ
- 2d = (IG / Ah) + h✓
- 3d = (IG / A) + h
- 4d = (AIG / h) + h
Correct answer
d = (IG / Ah) + h
