An underground tank is a hemisphere with radius 4 feet (i.e. it is half a sphere, and so horizontal cross-sections are circles of varying radius). It is filled to the top with oil weighing 45 lb per cubic foot. The top of the tank is at ground level, and the oil in the tank is pumped to a height of 10 feet above ground level. How much work is done? Set up the integral, but then just use your calculator to evaluate it. The picture is a two-dimensional picture of a vertical cross-section (through the center) of the tank.

A conical tank, point down, has a radius of 6 feet and a depth of 9 feet. Water is filling the tank and thus the volume of water in the tank is changing with time, as is the depth of the water and the radius of the surface of the water. Suppose that at the instant the depth of the water is 4 feet, the depth of the water is changing at an instantaneous rate of0.125 feet per minute. How...
