Problem 3: A plane gate of uniform thickness holds back a depth of water as shown in the figure. The gate thickness is 2 m, the length L is equal to 3 m, and the angle 0 equals 30°. Determine a. The average pressure on the gate. b. The hydrostatic force F applied to the gate and its components, vertical and horizontal c. Determine the volume of the "missing water" above the gate. What do you fincd interesting about this...
A water gate is shown below. The gate is hinged at the top (point A) and held in place with a stop at the bottom. The weight W is designed to counteract the hydrostatic force acting on the gate. The gate is 4 m high and 2 m wide. The water depth d = 5m. Answer the questions below, using a water density of 1000 kg/m3, and g = 9.81 m/s2. Calculate the average hydrostatic pressure acting on the gate....
QUESTION 2 (10 marks) A rectangular gate of width w = 2m, and length L - Xm, and of uniform thickness so that the centre of mass is located at the centroid, holds back a depth of water at 15°C as shown. The water surface is at the same height as the gate hinge. Find the minimum weight of the gate so that the gate remains closed. 8 = 30° L=4m Water Wm
The rigid gate, OAB, in Figure is hinged at O and rests against a rigid support at B. What is the minimum horizontal force, P, is required to hold the gate closed if its width is 4 m? Neglect the weight of the gate and friction in the hinge The back of the gate is exposed to the atmosphere.
A channel is closed by a rectangular gate shown in the Figure below. The gate which is hinged at the red circle in the figure is 7 m high and 1 m wide. It has seawater to the left to a depth of 7 m above the baseline and on the right has freshwater to a depth of 9.5 m above the baseline. The density of seawater is 1025 kg/m2, and density of freshwater is 1000 kg/m. Calculate the positive...
8 A rectangular gate is hinged at the water line , the dimension of gate 6mx5m wide. The specific gravity of water 9.81 kN/m3. find the force F to keep the gate closed (Non-anonymous question ) (10 Points) V hinge 6 m water F
Two square gates close two openings in a conduit connected to an open tank of water as shown in Fig. P2.34. When the water depth, h, reaches 5 m it is desired thatboth gates open at the same time. Determine the weight of the homogeneous horizontal gate and the horizontal force, R, acting on the vertical gate that is requiredto keep the gates closed until this depth is reached. The weight of the vertical gate is negligible, and both gates...
Problem 3 A gate, in the shape of a quarter-cylinder with a radius of 2.7 m, is hinged at A and scaled at B, as shown in the figure. The gate is 8 m wide. The bottom of the gate is 5 m below the water surface. Assume the water temperature is 20°C (a) Determine the magnitude and direction of the resultant force on the gate. (b) If the gate is made of a material with a density of 6400...
A quarter-circular gate is being used to retain a water reservoir, Figure 3. The gate is hinged at point B with radius R = 8 ft, depth b = 10 ft into the page, and weight W = 3000 lbf. Compute the force F, applied at point A, that will keep the gate from opening. Figure 3. Quarter-Circular Gate for Question 5
The rigid gate, OAB, of Fig. P11.23 is hinged at O and rests against a rigid support at B. What minimum horizontal force, P, is required to hold the gate closed if its width is 3 m? Neglect the weight of the gate and friction in the hinge. The back of the gate is exposed to the atmosphere.
