Repeat Prob. 388 for a radius of 4 m for the gate. Data from Problem 88 A 4-m-long quarter-circular gate

Question:

Repeat Prob. 3–88 for a radius of 4 m for the gate.


Data from Problem 88

A 4-m-long quarter-circular gate of radius 3 m and of negligible weight is hinged about its upper edge A, as shown in Fig. P3–88. The gate controls the flow of water over the ledge at B, where the gate is pressed by a spring. Determine the minimum spring force required to keep the gate closed when the water level rises to A at the upper edge of the gate.
