The concrete "gravity" dam is held in place by its own weight (Figure 1). The density of concrete is Pc = 2.5 Mg/m³, and water has a density of P = 1.0 Mg/m³. Suppose that a = 1.5 m. h=6 m. Figure -d-a- h < 1 of 1 > Part A Determine the smallest dimension d that will prevent the dam from overturning about its end A.
