5. Gate AB as shown in the figure is 6 ft wide and weighs 2000 lb when submerged. It is hinged at B and rests against a smooth wall at A. Determine the water level h which will just cause the gate open. yw = 62.4 lb/ft³. Hint: Fleft > FRight water 8ft r=5ft 45° 45* 5 ft 5. YR(right) = 4.259 from B parralle to the gate Take EMB F₁ = 3744(h+4) lb F₂ = 33696 lb YR(left) = 5-6.67/(h+4) h> 5.32 ft 10 ft 6. Curve wall ABC is a quarter circle 9ft wide.
