1) The hinged gate ABC closes an opening of width b (perpendicular to the paper) in a water
channel. The water has free access to the underside as well as the right side of the gate.
When the water level rises above a certain value of h, the gate will open. Determine the
critical value of h. Neglect the mass of the gate.

2) Specify the magnitude and location of the resultant force which acts on each side and the
bottom of the aquarium due to the fresh water inside it.

3) The rectangular gate shown in section is 3 m wide (perpendicular to the paper) and is hinged
about its upper edge B. The gate divides a channel leading to a fresh-water lake on the left
and salt-water tidal basin on the right. Calculate the torque M on the shaft of the gate at B
required to prevent the gate from opening when the salt-water level drops to 1 m (h = 1 m)

4) Fresh water in a channel is contained by the uniform 2.5-m plate freely hinged at A. If the
gate is designed to open when the depth of the water reaches 0.8 m as shown in the figure,
what must be the weight w (in newtons per meter of horizontal length into the paper) of the
gate?

5) A fresh-water channel 3 m wide (normal to the plane of the paper) is blocked at its end by a
rectangular barrier, shown in section ABD. Supporting struts BC are spaced every 0.6 m along
the 3-m width. Determine the compression C in each strut. Neglect the weights of the
members.

6) The cross section of a fresh-water tank with a slanted bottom is shown. A rectangular door
1.6 m by 0.8 m (normal to the plane of the figure) in the bottom of the tank is hinged at A
and is opened against the pressure of the water by the cable under a tension P as shown.
Calculate P.
