Answer:
1.504×10⁶ ft·lb
Step-by-step explanation:
We understand the top of the oil in the tank is 12 ft below ground level, and the bottom of the tank is 8+18=26 ft below ground level. Then the average depth of the oil is (12+26)/2 = 19 ft below ground level.
The height of the oil in the tank is 26-12=14 ft, so the volume of it is ...
V = πr²h = π(6 ft)²(14 ft) = 504π ft³ ≈ 1583.36 ft³
__
So, the work required to raise that volume of oil to the surface is ...
(1538.36 ft³)(50 lb/ft³)(19 ft) = 1.504×10⁶ ft·lb
The correct answer is 755
You can turn 0.05 to a fraction by
1- Look at how many digits are beyond the decimal
2- Then put the number 5 as a numerator and your denominator will be 100 because the number 5 is on the hundredths place so 0.05 as a fraction will be 5/100
