Calculate The Depth of Castor Oil Calculate Forces. For Castor Oil

This document calculates the depth of castor oil in a container containing castor oil, water, and linseed oil. It first calculates the forces and moments for each liquid individually using their densities, depths, and cross-sectional areas. It then sets the total moment of linseed oil equal to the sum of the moments of castor oil and water. Solving this equation results in a depth of -6.63m for the castor oil.
