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....

A uniform 6-m high, 10-m wide (into the page) rectangular gate
is hinged at Point A. The right side of the gate is exposed to the
atmosphere while the left side is partially covered by 2 different
fluids (oil as top layer and water as bottom layer). The free
surface of the oil is 1 m below the hinge at Point A. The oil layer
(SG = 0.8) is 2-m thick while the water layer is 3-m thick.

A 6-m-hight, 4-m-wide rectangular gate is located at the end of an open freshwater tank. The gate is hinged at the top and held in place by a force F. The pressure is proportional to the depth of the water and the average pressure p_avg exerted on the gate by the water is: where deltap is the difference in pressure between the bottom of the gate (P_1) and the surface (p_0). The resulting force of the water on the gate...
