Question: The gate AB has width w. Determine the horizontal and vertical components of force acting on the pin at B and the vertical reaction at

The gate AB has width w. Determine the horizontal and vertical components of force acting on the pin at B and the vertical reaction at the smooth support A.

The density of water is ρw.


Units Used:

Mg = 103 kg

kN = 103 N

MN = 106 N

Given:

w = 8 m

ρw = 1.0Mg/m3

a = 5 m

b = 4 m

c = 3 m

g = 9.81m/s2
