Global warming is a cause for concern because even small changes in the earth's temperature can have significant consequences. for example, if the earth's polar ice caps were to melt entirely, the resulting additional water in the oceans would flood many coastal areas. would it appreciably change the length of a day? calculate the resulting change in the duration of one day. model the polar ice as having mass 2.30x10^19 kg and forming two flat disks of radius 6.00x10^5 m. assume the water spreads into an unbroken thin, spherical shell after it melts. calculate the resulting change in the duration of one day both in seconds and as a percentage.

Atank has a shape of a cone with a radius at the top of 2 m and a height of 5 m. the tank also has a 1 m spout at the top of the tank. the tank is filled with water up to a height of 2 m. find the work needed to pump all the water out the top of the spout. (use 9.8 m/s2 for g and the fact that the density of water is 1000 kg/m3.)
