primary trend in Ayp vs. y.

DISCUSSION POINTS

How does the design of the apparatus enable the resultant force on the vertical surface to

be measured?

Are there any significant forces being neglected?

Is there any difference in the functional variation of force F with respect to y between the

partially and fully submerged cases? If so, what are these differences and what causes

them?

Compare the experimentally measured values of Yp with the theoretical ones using the plots

created in your analysis. Are there any differences? If so, what might they be due to?

What is the primary trend in Ayp vs. y. Is this what you would expect? Why or why not?
