Question

Question 2: A gate of horizontal width 2 m is hinged at point A as shown in Figure 2. There is no friction at point A. The weight of the gate and the reaction forces at the contact of the gate with the ground are negligible. Determine the force, F which is exerted at point B for the equilibrium condition shown in the figure. The water tank is exposed to atmosphere, $P_{atm}$. The density of the water is 1000 kg/m³ and the value of gravitational acceleration, g is 9.81 N/kg. (25 Points)
