The diagram above shows a water reservoir with an S-shaped gate at the bottom. Given h, R, 9, and the water density p,
the steps in this problem will walk you through determining the horizontal force F per unit length normal to the paper
required to keep the S-shape gate closed. Neglect friction in bearing O.
