Answer:

let cp be x

sp= 115x/100 ---(when 15%gain)

sp = 88x/100------(when 12% loss

according to question

115x/100 - 88x/100 = 81

or, (115x-88x)= 8100

or, 27x = 8100

or, x= 8100/27

x = 300

hence cp is RS 300

An aquarium 2 m long, 1 m wide, and 1 m deep is full of water. Find the work (in J) needed to pump half of the water out of the

Nitella [24]

Answer:

$W=2452.5 J$

Step-by-step explanation:

The work is define as the integral of the force times distance. So we have:

$W=\int^{a}_{b}Fxdx$

Now, we can write the force in terms of density.

$F=m*g=\rho Vg$

V is the volume (V=2*1*1=2 m³)

So the work will be:

$W=\int^{0.5}_{0} 2*1000*9.81*xdx=\int^{0.5}_{0} 2*1000*9.81*xdx=\int^{0.5}_{0}19620xdx=19620(\frac{x^{2}}{2})|^{0.5}_{0}$

The limit of integration is between 0 and 0.5 because we want to pump half of the water out of the aquarium.

$W=19620(\frac{x^{2}}{2})|^{0.5}_{0}=19620(\frac{0.5^{2}}{2})$

$W=2452.5 J$

I hope it helps you!
