object of this experiment was to calculate the hydrostatic force a fluid exerts on a submerged plane surface and then compare the experimental hydrostatic force to the theoretical hydrostatic force. Theory: The apparatus defining the physical dimensions‚ this nomenclature will be used throughout this theory. Whilst the theory for the partly submerged and fully submerged plane is the same‚ it will be clearer to consider the two cases separately. The apparatus can make the calculation center of pressure

Approach: This paper would like to use two methodologies to compare the performance of factories. First‚ this paper will measure input Vs. output. Factories which generate higher output given the same input will rank higher. Inputs can have two dimensions of time and money. We will measure how much input is needed to produce a unit quantity in terms of time and money. Second‚ this paper will measure the relationship between total production volume vs. yield. This is to rank factories both on
