Problem 2(9 pts) The gate shown below rests on a smooth floor at A and is hinged at B. Neglecting its weight, determine the vertical force P (in KN) required to open it when: (2.a) the gate is rectangular 2 m wide into the screen and h₁=h₂=0.6 m and s₁ s₂=1.0. (2.b) the gate is rectangular 2 m wide into the screen and h₁=0.6 m, h₂=0.6 m, s₁=1.0, and s₂=0 (air under a pressure of 20 KPa). (2.c) the gate is triangular 2 m wide on the hinged line at B, and the same conditions in part 2.a. h₂ Fluid 2: (S₂) h₁ Fluid 1: (S₁) P 2.0 m water 1.5 m B
