A right inverted circular cone has height of 12 feet and base radius of 5 feet. How much work does it require to pump all water out of the top of the tank? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. Use the fact that the density of water is 62.4 lb/ft^3. W = ??? ft-lbs

Step 1
First, we need to find the volume of the cone. The formula for the volume of a cone is $V = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h$, where $r$ is the radius and $h$ is the height. In this case, $r = 5$ and $h = 12$. Show more…

An inverted conical tank full of water has a height of 10 feet and a base radius of 5 feet. How much work is required to pump the water over the upper edge of the tank until the height of the water remaining in the tank is 9 feet? Note: The weight-density of water is 62.4 lbft3.

A tank in the shape of an inverted cone has a height of 7 feet and a base radius of 5 feet. The tank is full of water. How much work is required to pump the water over the upper edge of the tank until the height of the water remaining in the tank is 6 feet? Round to the nearest integer. Note: The weight-density of water is 62.4 lb/ft3.

A water tank is in the shape of a right circular cone with height $18 \mathrm{ft}$ and radius $12 \mathrm{ft}$ at the top. If it is filled with water to a depth of $15 \mathrm{ft}$, find the work done in pumping all of the water over the top of the tank. (The density of water is $\left.\delta=62.4 \mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{ft}^{3} .\right)$
