For some unknown reason, someone has built a lake full of mercury. The gate shown is 6 m wide into the paper. It is hinged at point A, and a stop at point B restrains it. Atmospheric pressure exists both above the water and outside the gate. Determine the resultant hydrostatic pressure force (N) on the gate, the location of the center of pressure relative to the surface (m), and the force on the stop at B (N). You are given h = 18 m, a = 8 m, and yHg = 133,700 m3 Pa Hg Pa 8 m
