Question 2 In the schematic demonstrated in the figure, a spherical gate is used to regulate the height of water in a tank. The sphere radius is 50 cm and when the water height in the tank reaches 6 m, the gate opens by turning around hinge A. Determine the total hydrostatic force applied on the sphere and its angle of action at the moment that the gate is about to open. h=6 m R=50cm
