Determine the magnitude and direction of the HORIZONTAL component of the hydrostatic force (in kN) acting on the gate. Indicate the direction by putting an R for right or L for left after your numerical answer. b.) determine the VERTICAL component of the hydrostatic force (in kN) acting on the gate. Indicate the direction by putting U for upward and D for downward after your numerical answer. c.) Determine the magnitude (in kN) of the hydrostatic force acting on the gate.
