Question: ( 1 5 points w 1 0 point bonus ) Calculate a force per f t of the dam ( assume w = 1 f

(15 points w10 point bonus) Calculate a force per ft of the dam (assume w=1ft) for
the concrete gravity dam illustrated below and calculated its point of applications
measured from point A along the dam's wetted face. The bonus, find the resultant force
on the inclined surface of the dam and the lR from point A.
