Question

The lockgate of a canal is 4.8 m broad. The depth of
water on one side of the lockgate is 4.5 m and on the
other side is 3 m. Calculate the total thrust on the
lockgate. The density of water = 1000 kg m-3.​

Answer 1

Answer:

A canal lock gate is 4 m broad and the depth of water on opposite side of the gate are 5m and 2m . Find the resultant thrust on the gate and the torque tending to ture the gate about its base. Density of water

probably this answer is right..
