Question: Figure 3 . 5 : The cilindrical gate. Figure 3 . 5 shows a schematic of a cilindrical gate with diameter D of 1 .

Figure 3.5: The cilindrical gate.
Figure 3.5 shows a schematic of a cilindrical gate with diameter D of 1.1m, and a width L
(the length in the direction perpendicular to this page) of 1.0m. The gate is hinged in A,
and when the water (kinematic viscosity 1.1*10-6m2s-1) level upstream reaches the depth
h=4.8m the gate opens by turning around A. With the given data:
Calculate
The horizontal component of the water thrust : N
The vertical component of the water thrust : N
The total magnitude of the water thrust : N
The angle of action from the horizontal plane : Degrees
The weight of the gate : N
