A moment M applied about the hinge A helps the stainless-steel gate in the figure hold fresh water in storage. Calculate the necessary M to just hold the gate closed against the lip of the container at C if the specific weight of the fresh water in tank is 62.41 lb/ft³, the width of the gate is 80 in, the weight of the gate is 120 lb, and the point G in the figure shows the center of gravity of the gate.
