The force due to water pressure on one long side of the pool can be calculated using the formula:
Force = Pressure * Area

The pressure at a given depth in a fluid is given by:
Pressure = Density * g * Depth

Where: Density is the density of water (62.5 lb/ft3), g is the acceleration due to gravity (32.2 ft/s2), Depth is the depth of the water.

The area of one long side of the pool is given by:
Area = b * c
