Determine the magnitude of the horizontal component of the anchoring force required to hold in place the sluice gate shown in Fig. 5.59. Compare this result with the size of the horizontal component of the anchoring force required to hold in place the sluice gate when it is closed and the depth of water upstream is \(10 \mathrm{ft}\).
