A gate rotates at point A and releases water when the water's depth, d, exceeds a certain value. The gate's width (perpendicular to the image) is b = 2.95 ft, the water's depth is d = 4.82 ft, and point A is located at h = 2.41 ft. a) What is F, the magnitude of the horizontal force exerted on the gate by the water? The water's specific weight is γw=62.4lb/ft3. b) What are Ax and Bx, the horizontal reaction forces at points A and B that act on the gate from Part A. c) What is dmax, the water's maximum depth before the pressure causes the gate from part A to open?
A tremendous force is generated when waterfreezes into ice and expands in volume by 9.0%. Suppose a 1.000-m3cube of liquid water freezes into ice that is 1.000 m on a side by1.090 m tall. How many 68-kg students would the ice be able tolift? Determine this by calculating the amount of force on the top1.000-m2face that would be required to squeeze 1.090 m3of iceback to 1.000 m3, assuming all of the volume change occurs alongthe vertical direction
Generalize Prob. as follows. Denote length AB asH , length BC as L , and angle ABC as θ . Let the dam materialhave specifi c gravity SG. The width of the dam is b .Assume no seepage of water under the dam. Find an analyticrelation between SG and the critical angle θ c for whichthe dam will just tip over to the right. Use your relation tocompute θ c for the special case SG = 2.4 (concrete).
