A trough is 12m long, 5m wide, and 2m deep. The vertical cross-section of the trough parallel to an end is shaped like an isoceles triangle (with height 2m, and base, on top, of length 5m). The trough is full of water (density 1000kg/m^3 and g=9.8m/s^2is the acceleration due to gravity). a) Find the amount of work in joules required to empty the trough by pumping the water over the top. b.Find the amount of work in joules required to empty the trough by pumping the water out of a spout 3m high.
2. (6413 #5 p. 351) A water tank is in the shape of a cone with the vertex down (Just like a cone ofice cream). The cone is 15 feet deep and the radius of the top is 10 feet. The cone is full of salt waterwith a density of 63 pounds per cubic foot. Setup, but do not evaluate, an integral which would givethe work done in pumping all the water to a level 4 feet above the top of the cone. The amount ofwork done is 244,125 π foot-pounds.
