The gate is mounted on a shaft along its horizon- tal diameter. For a water depth of 10 m above the staft determine: (a) the magnitude and lo- cation of the resultant force exerted on the gate by the water, and (b) the moment that would hhave 10 be applied to the shaft to open the gate. M FIGURE E2.6 ‘A large fish-holding tank contains seawater (y ~ 64.0 Ib/ft?) to a depth of 10 ft as shown in Fig. E2.7a. To repair some damage to one corner of the tank, a triangular section is replaced with a new section as illustrated. Determine the magnitude and location of the force of the seawater on this triangular area. m FIGURE £2.7Figure 4.7 shows a dam 30.5 m long thal relains 8 m of fresh water and is inclined atan angle @ of 60°. Calculate the magnitude of the resultant force on the dam and the location of the center of pressure. pressureSuppose that the tank in Fig. P2.51 is filled with liquid X, not oil. Gate AB is 0.8 m wide into the paper. Suppose that liquid X causes a force F on gate AB and that the moment of this force about point B is 26,500 N - m. What is the specific gravity of liquid X? 6m —— Oil, SG =0.82 Find the net hydrostatic force per unit width on the rec- tangular gate AB in Fig. P2.60 and its line of action. Gate AB in Fig. P2.61 is a homogeneous mass of 180 kg, 1.2 m wide into the paper, hinged at A, and resting on a smooth bottom at B. All fluids are at 20°C. For what wa- ter depth / will the force at point B be zero?
