A tank holds water (density of 995.7 kg/m3) with a triangular gate located at the bottom right. The gate is an isosceles triangle with a base/width of 0.7 m and a height of 1.4 m. What force (F) applied at the gate's centroid is needed to keep the gate closed? The height from the water surface to the gate centroid is given by h = 4.9 m. Please note that the side view of the gate is shown and that the force is applied at the gate's centroid, although not accurately drawn.

A cylindrical buoy 0.60 m in diameter and 1.80m high weighs 205kg. It is moored in salt water to a 12m length of chain weighing 12 kg/m of length. At high tide the height of the buoy protruding above water is 0.84m. What could be the height pf protrusion of the buoy if the tide dropped 2.10m? Specific weight of the steel chain is 7,790 kg/m^3. 206kg 0.84m W.S. 0.96m h,

Ocean Marsh d = 9 ft 5.79 A freshwater marsh is drained to the ocean through an automatic tide gate that is 4 ft wide and 3 ft high. The gate is ħeld by hinges located along its top edge at A and bears on a sill at B. At a given time, the water levels in the marsh and in the ocean are h = 6 ft and d = 9 ft, respectively. Determine the force exerted by the sill on the gate at B and the hinge reaction at A. (Specific weight of salt water = 64 lb/ft³.) h =6 ft 3 ft B Fig. P5.79
