EMERGENCY!!!! The cover in the figure is hinged at the center O and has a fixed width w = 5 m. The equation of the surface is x = y2 / a (a = 3 m), the depth of the water to the right of the lid (D = 4 m). If the weight of the lid is neglected, it is necessary to keep the lid in balance. Find the size of the force (Fa) required, as shown. Take the density of the water as 999 kg / m3.

The base of the gate is 2.70 m below the surface of oil (s = 0.80). What normal force must be applied at the vertex of the gate to open it? Show figure
A rectangular gate 1.4 m in base and 1.8 m high is placed on the face of the water reservoir, as shown in the figure. Its upper portion is hinged and the base is attached to a cylindrical buoy whose weight is 20 kg. The external diameter of the buoy is 2 m and the weight of the gate is 50 kg. The mechanism is such that the buoy will open the gate if water surface will rise higher than 4 m. What is the height of the buoy below the water surface?
