Questions:
(a) Determine the horizontal component of the resultant hydrostatic force (per unit
width) acting on the gate.
(b) Determine the vertical component of the resultant hydrostatic force (per unit
width) acting on the gate.
(c) Determine the magnitude and direction of the resultant hydrostatic force.
(d) Does the line of action of this force pass through point O? Justify your answer.

The cylinder is 50% filled with water (the shaded part), with density ρ. The other 50% of the volume in the cylinder is filled with air with constant pressure of p = p0. The length of the cylindrical container in the axial direction is W. b) Use the surface integral method to compute the hydrostatic force acted on the 4th quadrant of the cylinder wall, as shown by the thickened line in the figure.arrow_forward
