Question: The gate ( A B ) in ( Figure 1 ) is 7 . 5 m wide. Determine the horizontal and vertical components

The gate \( A B \) in (Figure 1) is 7.5 m wide. Determine the horizontal and vertical components of force acting on the pin at B and the vertical reaction at the smooth support \( A \); \(\rho_{w}=1.0\mathrm{Mg}/\mathrm{m}^{3}\).
Part A
Determine the horizontal component of force acting on the pin at \( B \).
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.
\[
B_{x}=
\]
Part B
Determine the vertical component of force acting on the pin at \( B \).
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.
\[
B_{y}=
\]
Part C
Determine the vertical reaction at the smooth support \( A \).
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.
\[
A_{y}=
\]
The gate \ ( A B \ ) in ( Figure 1 ) is 7 . 5 m
