Gate AB (horizontally oriented) is below 4 feet of water. The specific weight of water is 62.4 lb/ft³. What is the difference in the fluid pressures at points A and B on the gate? What is the total force exerted by the water on gate AB if it is 3x2 feet? PA = PB; 1497.6 lb PA > PB; 1497.6 lb PA < PB; 748.8 lb PA = PB; 748.8 lbShow more…

Step 1
First, we need to find the pressure at points A and B. Pressure at a depth h in a fluid is given by the formula P = ρgh, where ρ is the fluid density, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the depth. Show more…
