    F = 351*10³lb

    Explanation:

    Given the density

    ρg = 64.6lb/ft³

    Diameter d = 12ft

    The tank is horizontally cylindrical. The vertical distance from the top to the bottom of the tank is h = 12ft

    The pressure in the tank is

    P = ρgh = 64.6 * 12 = 775.2lb/ft²

    The force exerted on one end of the tank is therefore F = PA = 775.2 * πd² = 775.2π*12²

    F = 351*10³lb.
