The rectangular homogeneous gate shown below is 5.00 m high x 1.00 m wide and has a frictionless hinge at the bottom. If the fluid on the left side of the gate has a density of 1,600 kg/m³, the magnitude of the force F (kN) required to keep the gate closed is most nearly: F FLUID 5.00 m FRICTIONLESS HINGE The rectangular homogeneous gate shown below is 5.00 m high x 1.00 m wide and has a frictionless hinge at the bottom.
