A cylindrical barrel has a narrow tube fixed to the top, as shown with dimensions in Fig. 15-24. The vessel is filled with water to the top of the tube. Calculate the ratio of the hydrostatic force exerted on the bottom of the barrel to the weight of the water contained inside. Why is the ratio not equal to one? (Ignore the presence of the atmosphere.)
