Hi!
A ridged rod is submerged in water at a 45 degree angle toward the bottom of a tank of water. The upper end of the rod is fixed to a pivot point and so, the lower end of the rod is able to move around that pivot point. The lower end of the rod has a float attached to that displaces 50lb of water. The rod length is 15 feet. How do I calculate how many Lb of upward force the float has at any given point along its' journey upwards toward the surface. Thanks!
