Question 1 (25 marks] Assume that you own a luxury sporting car with gullwing doors, as shown in the figure below. Unfortunately, you drive the car into a lake. Water is accumulating in the car, so you need to open the door manually to escape. The door is unlocked now, so it can freely rotate regarding a hinge on top of the door. For simplicity, the cross section of the car is approximated by a trapezoidal shape. The door's width (in the direction perpendicular to the cross section) is 1.2 m. As sketched in the figure, the doors are sloped at an angle of 9=30° from vertical. The water depth at the top of the car is hi=im, and the depth of the car's interior is ha=1.4m. The water depth in the car is h. You can assume that the air pressure inside that car remains at the atmospheric pressure if h
