A swimming pool is 10 m wide and 20 m long and its bottom is an inclined plane, the shallow end having depth 1 m and the deep end 2 m. If the pool is full of water, find the hydrostatic force, in Newtons (N), on the long vertical side of the pool that is shaded in the diagram below. For acceleration due to gravity use the value $g=9.8\,m/s^{2}$ and for the density of water use the value $\rho =1000\,kg/m^{3}$.
