$A$ tank with a square base of area $1.0 \; m^{2}$ is divided by a vertical partition in the middle. The bottom of the partition has a small hinged door of area $20 \; cm^{2}$. The tank is filled with water in one compartment and an acid (of relative density $1.7$) in the other,both to a height of $4.0 \; m$. Compute the force (in $N$) necessary to keep the door closed.
