A rectangular vertical gate that has a width of 0.6 meters, height of 2.45 meters, and it weighs 1.78kN is hinged at the bottom. On the right side of the gate the water has a height of 1.8 meters while on the left side of the gate the water has a height of 4.9 meters. However, the gate is held in place by horizontal force F applied at the top of the gate. Determine the horizontal force F and the reactions at the hinge. The weight of water is 9.81 kN/m3
