In the figure shown, the 8-ft-diameter cylinder, 3 feet long weighs 550 lbs and rests on the bottom of a tank that is 3 feet long. Water and oil are poured into the left-and right-hand of the tank to depths 2 feet and 4 feet, respectively. Determine, the magnitudes of the horizontal and vertical components of the force that will keep the cylinder touching the tank at A. 2 ft Water r = 4 ft A Oil, s = 0.75 = Ans: FH 749 lb → Fy=2,134 lbs V 4 ft
