Question
A 4 m square gate provided in an oil tank is hinged at its top edge (see figure below). The tank contains gasoline (specific gravity 0.7) upto a height of 2 m above the top edge of the gate. The space above the oil is subjected to a negative pressure of 6865 N/m^2. Determine the necessary vertical pull to be applied at the lower edge to open the gate. Negative Gasoline surface pressure Gasoline 2 m .F Hinge. P 45°
