Question: As shown in the figure, with ( x _ 0 = 5 m ) , ( h = 5 0 m

As shown in the figure, with \( x_0=5m \),\( h =50m \), and a parabolic curve of \( z =14.95x^{0.75}\), there is a dam. Calculate (a) the **horizontal force \( F_H \)** acting on the dam and its point of application \( h_p \), and (b) the **vertical force \( F_V \)** acting on the dam and its point of application \( x_p \).[2 points] The length of the dam is \( L =100m \), and the unit weight of water is **1 tonf/m^3**.|
