Q5: Compute the horizontal and vertical components of total force acting on a curved surface AB, which is in the form of a quadrant of circle of radius 275 cm. and take width of the gate as 750 mm. For same radius for quadrant of circle and width of the gate as unity, then find horizontal and vertical components of total force acting on curved surface AB. Discuss the results with respect to horizontal and vertical components of force acting on the a curved surface.
