A cylindrical tank has a radius of 2 m and a height of 9 m. The tank is filled with water. Find the work needed to pump the top 3 m of water out the top of the tank. (Use 9.8 m/s2 for g and the fact that the density of water is 1000 kg/m3.)

Answer:

3,325,140 Joules

Step-by-step explanation:

Work done by the pump = Force applied to pump * distance covered by the water.

Since Force = mass * acceleration due to gravity

Force = (density of water * volume of the tank) * acceleration due to gravity

F =ρVg

Workdone = (ρVg )* d

Given ρ = 1000kg/m³, g = 9.8m/s², d = 3m

[tex]V = \pi r^{2}h\\V = \pi (2)^{2} *9\\V = 36 \pi \\V =113.10m^{3}[/tex]

Workdone by the pump = 1000 * 113.10 * 9.8 * 3

Workdone by the pump  = 3,325,140Joules
