If the hinge were on the top of the gate the hydrostatic pressure force has a lonarm. A longer lever arm means less force is required to balance the moment atop hinge, i.e. the water depth h would be lower when the gate opens. We this reasoning by summing the moments about the top hinge:

Problem 5
Problem Statement:
You are conducting a wind tunnel test to measure the aerodynamic drag (tance) over a cylinder. Apply the momentum principle for a control volumethe drag force per unit width, W, in terms of the upstream and downstream and pressures. The upstream velocity is a 15.6 m/s. The downstream horizonity measurements are shown in the table below. Upstream pressure is 133.5 and downstream pressure is 0.0 Pa (gage). The diameter of the cylinder is Total wind tunnel height is 240 mm. Neglect any forces on the wind tunnel whorizontal velocity profile is symmetric about the y axis.
Approach:
This problem asks us to do a force balance on the control volume shown beproblem statement says to neglect any forces on the wind tunnel walls; the foremain are: the pressure force on the inlet and outlet, and the force on the Ccylinder. The vector sum of these forces equal the change in momentum flux a
inlet and outlet of the CV. The key to this problem are choosing the correct simassumptions and being careful with the signs on the various forces.
Assumptions:

Governing Equations:
The force balance includes pressure forces,Fp and and force on the CV by theFd. Expanding these forces for a fixed, steady-flow control volume gives:
FCV = Fp+ Fd= Change in momentum flux
FCV = CS P(n) dA + Fd= CS VV n dA

Putting this together:
F= V(HW)V+ Mout
And because we only have horizontal flow, we can put this in the scalar form Fy = (HW)V
2 +Mout
Pressure force
The force due to pressure can be similarly divided into inlet and outlet pressuCS
P(n)dA =
inlet
P(n) dA +
outlet
P(n) dA
Because we our CV is assumed to be surrounded by atmospheric pressure it is coto work in gage pressure, (P Patm). From the problem statement we know
gage pressure at the outlet is zero, so the pressure force is simply:
Fyp =Pin,gageA
Force on the CV by the cylinder
We can find the drag force on the cylinder using the force balance:
FCV = Fp+ Fd= V(HW)V+ Mout
Fd= V(HW)V+ Mout Fp
Fyd = (HW)V2in+Mout Pin,gageA
Fyd = 1.2kg/m3(0.24m)W(15.6m/s)2+86.6481W N133.5P a(0.24m)W
Fd is the force on the control volume by the cylinder, so from Newtons thir
force on the cylinder by the control volume is Fd=15.48W N to the right.
The drag on the cylinder is approximately 15.48 N per unit width in the pos
