A storm water drainage pipe with diameter of 800mm is carrying stormwater of density 1153 kg/m3. The water is filled to a height of 600mm from the bottom. The arrangement is shown in the figure below. If the length of AC=384.7mm, determine the magnitude and line of action of the resultant force that water exerts on a 1-m length of curve section BC of the conduit wall. Also draw the free-body diagram of the AOBC zone of the conduit. (Hint: An arc with radius R and centre angle a, will have an area equal to a/2*R?, where a is in radians)
