Determine the weight of the gate per meter length

Reference no: EM13536767

The homogeneous gate shown in Fig. P2.88 consists of one quarter of a circular cylinder and is used to maintain a water depth of 4 m. That is, when the water depth exceeds 4 m, the gate opens slightly and lets the water flow under it. Determine the weight of the gate per meter length.
