10 Two identical cylindrical vessels with their bases at the same level each contain a liquid of density 1.22 g/cm³. The area of each base is 3.36 cm2, but in one vessel the liquid height is 0.740 m and in the other it is 1.38 m. Find the work done by the gravitational force in equalizing the levels when the two vessels are connected. Number i Units
A water tank is shaped like an inverted cone with height 6 m and base radius 1.5 m (as shown). a. If the tank is full, how much work is required to pump the water to the level of the top of the tank and out of the tank? b. Is it true that it takes half as much work to pump the water out of the tank when it is filled to half its depth as when it is full? Explain.
