The wall separates water and glycerin (p=120 kg/m^3). Consider a unit width of the rectangular panel AB when d=6ft. (a) Using the panel equations, determine F1, the hydraulic force (in lb) acting on the gate due to water? (b) Where is the line of action of F1 relative to point B in feet? (c) Using the panel equation, determine F2, the hydraulic force (in lb) acting on the gate due to glycerine? (d) Where is the line of action of F2 relative to point B in feet? (e) What is the net hydrostatic force F acting on the gate? Indicate the direction by putting R for right and L for left after a space from your numerical answer. (f) Where is the line of action of F relative to point B in feet
