A vertical dam has a semicircular gate as shown in the figure. The total depth d of the figure is 42 m, the height h of air above the water level is 6 m, and the width w of the gate is 8 m. Find the hydrostatic force against the gate. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Use 9.8 m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity. Recall that the weight density of water is 1000 kg/m3.)

A dam which is v = 21 meters tall has an outflow gate. The gate, height u = 4 meters, has a shape given by the region under the equation, y = u − x2, y ≥ 0. Note that y is the vertical distance from the bottom of the gate in meters, and x is the horizontal distance from the middle, measured in meters. If the entire dam is under water (That is, the surface of the water is...

Find the total force on a semi-circle (half-circle) shaped dam where the top of the dam is the diameter of the circle, and the diameter of the circle is 12 m. The water rises to the top of the dam. Set up the integral needed to solve the problem, but do not integrate. (Hint: The density of water is 1000 kg/m3 , and g = 9.8 m/s2 .)

A dam is inclined at an angle of 30° from the vertical and has the shape of an isosceles trapezoid 200 ft wide at the top and 100 ft wide at the bottom and with a slant height of 140 ft. Find the hydrostatic force on the dam when it is full of water. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Recall that the weight density of water is 62.5 lb/ft3.)

A trough is 10 meters long, 3 meters wide, and 4 meters deep. The vertical cross-section of the trough parallel to an end is shaped like an isosceles triangle (with height 4 meters, and base, on top, of length 3 meters). The trough is full of water (density 1000kg/m^3). Find the amount of work in joules required to empty the trough by pumping the water over the top. (Note: Use g=9.8ms^2 as the acceleration due to gravity.)

A dam on a river is built so that the wall facing the water is shaped like the region above the curve y=0.3 x^4 and below the line y= 140 . (Here, distances are measured in meters.) The water level is 20 meters below the top of the dam. Find the force (in Newtons) exerted on the dam by water pressure. (Water has a density of 1000 "kg"/m^3, and the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/sec^2 .)
