The section of a gate at the end of a tank
is shown below. The length of the gate is
3 m normal to the paper and hinge at O.
If the depth of water is 2.50 m, neglecting
the weight of the gate calculate the
horizontal component of the hydrostatic
force on the submerged curve surface
section of the gate. Use unit weight of
water 9.80 kN/m^3. *
