**🧠 FE Exam Fluids | Statics – Submerged Gate on Inclined Surface **

This isn’t just another fluid mechanics problem — it’s a chance to *build deep understanding* through *active recall* and *conceptual integration**. In this video, we solve a hydrostatics problem by breaking a **trapezoidal pressure distribution* into a **rectangular prism and a triangular prism**, then resolving the total force by calculating the **volume under each shape**.

But more importantly — we’re *connecting the dots* between pressure distributions, distributed loads, centroids, and moments. This helps you not only solve the problem but actually *retain* the concept long-term by seeing how different topics reinforce each other.

---

*✅ You’ll Learn How To:*
Use geometry to find forces from pressure distributions
Apply centroids to locate equivalent point loads
Reframe hydrostatic problems as statics problems
Practice *active recall* across fluids, statics, and mechanics
Solve complex problems from first principles, not memorization

---

*📘 Topics Covered in This Video:*
• Trapezoidal pressure distributions = prism volumes
• Pressure–depth relationships and force calculation
• Centroids of rectangular and triangular areas
• Static equilibrium with fluid-induced forces
• Integrated problem-solving across FE topics

---

*💡 Why This Matters:*
The FE exam rewards *conceptual flexibility**. By solving from **first principles* and constantly **tying topics together**, you’re strengthening mental connections and making concepts stick — long after exam day. This video trains your brain to think like an engineer: analyze, connect, and reason from fundamentals.
