Figure 4.45 shows a gate hinged at its bottom and held by a simple support at its top. The gate separates two fluids. Compute the net force on the gate due to the fluid on each side. Then compute the force on the hinge and on the support.

Support Gate, 0.60 m wide 2,80 m 2.50 m 2.0 m Oil Water sg = 0.90 Hinge

Support Gate, 0.60 m wide 2,80 m 2.50 m 2.0 m Oil Water sg = 0.90 Hinge
