a. A force of 40 lb is necessary to hold a spring that has been stretched from its natural

length of 10 ft to a length of 15 ft. How much work is done in stretching the spring from 15 ft to a length of 18 ft? (Hint: Use Hook’s Law F = kx, where x represents distance that the spring is stretched or compressed past its natural length)

b. A tank full of water has the shape of an inverted circular cone with height 12 ft and base radius 5 ft. Find the work required to empty the tank by pumping all of the water to the top of the tank. (The density of water is 62.5 ??/??3)

c. A heavy rope, 30 ft long, weighs 0.2 lb/ft and hangs over the edge of a building. Find the work done required in pulling the rope to the top of the building
