A trough is 11m long, 5m wide, and 3m deep. The vertical cross-section of the trough parallel to an end is shaped like an isoceles triangle (with height 3m, and base, on top, of length 5m). The trough is full of water (density 1000kg/m3 and g=9.8m/s2 is the acceleration due to gravity).

a) Find the amount of work in joules required to empty the trough by pumping the water over the top.

b) Find the amount of work in joules required to empty the trough by pumping the water out of a spout 2m high.

A fluidic storage tank has a square cross-section (3m x 3m) and a height of 10m. The tank is half-filled with a fluid with the density of 200kg/m3. The tank suddenly develops a leak. A sensor inside the tank instantaneously alerts the owner that the height of the fluid in the tank is decreasing by 1mm/min. Find the flow rate out of the tank at that moment in time.
