Q2 The 4-m-diameter circular gate of Fig. E2.6a is located in the inclined wall of a large reser- voir containing water (y 9.80 kN/m'). The gate is mounted on a shaft along its horizon- tal diameter. For a water depth of 10 m above the shaft determine: (a) the magnitude and lo- cation of the resultant force exerted on the gate by the water, and (b) the moment that would have to be applied to the shaft to open the gate. 10 m Stop Shaft Center of pressure
