A concrete wall shaped as an "inverted T" is used to prevent flooding. Calculate the force F that would cause the wall to tip over (that is, to rotate around the point of rotation). The specific gravity of the concrete is 2.4. Hint: you may perform all your analysis on a unit length of the wall. F + 1.5 ft 1 ft Point of rotation 1.5 ft 5 ft Rubber seal to prevent water from running under the wall.
