A 3-m-high, 11-m-wide rectangular gate is hinged at the top edge at A and is restrained by a fixed ridge at B. Determine the hydrostatic force exerted on the gate by the 5-m-high water and the location of the pressure center. Take the density of water to be 1000 kg/m³ throughout. Water 2 m A 3'm -Gate B The hydrostatic force exerted on the gate by the water is KN. The vertical distance of the pressure center from the free surface of water is m.
