Find the work done in emptying a cylindrical tank filled with water. The water is being pumped out from the 6 top. The tank has
1 answer:
Answer:
<em>908360.67 lb-ft</em>
<em></em>
Step-by-step explanation:
height of tank= 6 ft
diameter of the tank = 4 ft
density of water p = 62.4 lbs/ft
A is the cross sectional area of the tank
A =
where r = diameter/2 = 4/2 = 2 ft
A = 3.142 x = 12.568 ft^2
work done = force x distance through which force is moved
work = F x d
Force due to the water = pgAh
where g = acceleration due to gravity = 32.174 ft/s^2
Force = 62.4 x 32.174 x 12.568 x 6 = 151393.44 lb
work done = force x distance moved
work = 151393.44 x 6 = <em>908360.67 lb-ft</em>

Answer:
39.25 cubic feet of paint will be needed by Ellis.
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of a cylinder:
The volume of a cylinder of radius r and height h is given by:
How much paint will Ellis need to paint all the surfaces of the 10 fenceposts?
This is the combined volume of these 10 fenceposts.
They are each 5 feet tall and have a diameter of 1 foot.
Radius is half the diameter, so . Also
10 fenceposts:
Each has the same volume, so:
39.25 cubic feet of paint will be needed by Ellis.
