The crest gate shown consists of a cylindrical surface which AB is the base, supported by a structural frame hinged at C. it is retaining water on one side. The length of the gate perpendicular to the paper is 8.79 m. use R = 14 m. and 0 = 49 degrees. Determine the angle (in degrees, acute) of inclination of the total hydrostatic force acting on surface AB.
