1. (6413 #4 p. 351) The cross section of a large tank is a trapezoid. The short side of the trapezoid is 12 feet long and is the top of the tank. The long side of the trapezoid is 18 feet and is the bottom of the tank. The two sloping sides of the trapezoid are both 5 feet long. The tank itself is 14 feet long and is full of water with a density of 62.5 pounds per cubic foot. Setup, but do not solve, an integral which will give the work done in pumping all the water to a level 5 feet above the top of the tank. The amount of work done is 401,250 foot-pounds.
