A ship has portholes to provide light and ventilation to lower decks. When there are large waves on the freshwater lake, the portholes can be submerged by up to 12 feet of water, measured straight down from the surface to the center of the 15 inch diameter porthole. The position of the portholes in calm water is sketched below at left. The position with large waves is shown below at right. Assume the listing angle is 0= 15°. Portholes are shown with the following symbol: 0

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.
