Question
A tank has the shape of an inverted right circular cone with height 9m and radius 18m. It is filled with 5m of hot chocolate. Assume that the density of the hot chocolate is 1450kg/m^3 and g=9.8m/s^2.
Find the work required to empty the tank by pumping the hot chocolate over the top of the tank.
Work = Joules.
