Horizontal force, Fh = 95.68 kn Location of Fh = 1.7 m from water surface. Vertical force, Fv = 36.78 kn Location of Vh = 0.654 from the imaginary line AC shown in fig. All the necessary calculations are attached below.{:[F_(H)=nu xxh_(ca,)xx A],[y=3sin 45^(@)=2.55 m],[=9.81 xx(y)/(2)xx1xx(y)/(6)],[=9.81 xx(2.55)/(2)xx1xx2.55],[F_(H)=31.89kN],[f_(v)=nu xxV_(0)l_(ACB)quadA_(ACB)=A_(ACBD)+A_(BDO)-A_(ABO)],[=nu xx(A_(ACB)xx1m)],[A(ACB=5.2 xx3+(1)/(2)-2:}],[A_(ACB)=(2.55 xx1.5)+((1)/(2 ...
