Hello, everyone.
I am trying to calculate the pressure acting at the vertical wall of a cylinder water tank.
I am wondering whether the presure acting on the wall is as follow:
Pressure = Density * gravity * height
where height is from the water surface to the calculation point.
Also, I am wondering whether the situation is the same when i replace the water with dry sand.
Thank you very much for your help.
