Answer is given, just give the solution.

1. A vertical circular gate 3 m diameter is submerged in water with its top is 2m below the water surface. Compute the total pressure and its location from the water surface ? 1. F = 242 kN YR = 3.66 m from the water surface 2. The gate shown in figure below is triangular in shape whose base is 5 m. The vertex of the triangle is hinged at point A, and rest against a smooth wall at B. Compute the total force acting on the gate due to sea water (y = 10.10 kN/m³), also compute for the reaction at point A and B, neglect the weight of the gate. 5m 2. F=378.75 kN RB = 245.49 kN RA=303.55 kN Y = 10.10 kN/m³ A 4m B 3m 5m
