The formula for the work done in emptying a tank is this:
W = ωyV

where
ω is the specific weight
y is the center of gravity
V is the volume of the liquid

The specific weight can be calculated using the formula
ω = ρg
where
ρ is the density
g is the acceleration due to gravity

Solving for ω
ω = 817.15 kg/m3 (9.81 m/s2)
ω = 8016.24 N/m3

The center of gravity of a completely filled cylindrical tank is just 1/2 of the height. So,
y = 3 cm

The volume of the kerosene is just the volume of tank. Using the formula for the volume of a cylinder
V = πr²h
V = π (3²) (6)
V = 54π m³

Therefore, the word done is
W = 8016.24 (6) (54π)
W = 8159538.47 J or
W = 8.16 MJ

Name six elements that are gaseous at room temperature
mars1129 [50]
Some common elements that are gaseous state at room temperature are:

Oxygen
Nitorgen
Fluorine
Chlorine
Hydrogen
Helium

In addition, all of the elements in group VIII are gases too, they have an octet of electrons (complete outer electron shell) , they're really stable and therefore they're called noble gases. Some examples from group VIII include helium, krypton, xenon etc.

Substance exist as gases in room temperature is due to their boiling point, where is it lower than the room temperature (usually around 25°C). If their boiling point is higher than room temperature, they should exist as either solid or liquid, which is how the majority of the elements in the periodic table is.

Lorico [155]
The question is; how might genetically engineered organisms solve this problem? I think this may be done by making it cheaper and easier to administer vaccines. All vaccines are genetically modified in a certain way. A gene may be programmed to produce an antiviral protein in bacterial cell. Once sealed into the DNA, the bacteria is now effectively re-programmed to replicate this antiviral protein. Recombinant engineered vaccines are being extensively explored, and this may help solve the problem described above.
