Textbook Question
Chapter 3, Problem 75P
An open tank is filled to the top with water. A steel cylindrical container, wall thickness δ = 1 mm, outside diameter D = 100 mm, and height H = 1 m, with an open top, is gently placed in the water. What is the volume of water that overflows from the tank? How many 1 kg weights must be placed in the container to make it sink? Neglect surface tension effects.

4. The end of a semi-circular water trough is closed by a massless rectangular gate, shown below. If the water level
gets too high, the gate can rotate about a frictionless hinge and let some water out of the trough. When the water
in the trough is 3-ft deep, as shown in the figure, the gate is just held shut by the spherical counterweight attached
to the gate. If the distance between the hinge and the counterweight is l = 3.5 ft, determine
a) The mass (m) of the counterweight, in slugs.
b) The horizontal and vertical reaction forces, R., and Ry, respectively, at the hinge when the gate is just about
to open.
