A conical container of radius 6 ft and height 18 ft is filled to a height of 11 ft of a liquid weighing 64.4 lb divided by ft cubedlb/ft3. How much work will it take to pump the contents to the rim? The amount of work required

Hello there, please see explanations for step by step answer.

Explanation:

Radius 6 ft and

Height 18 ft is filled to a height of 11 ft of a liquid weighing 64.4 lb divided by ft cubedlb/ft3.

How much work will it take to pump the contents to the rim.

See attached documents for clear solvings and further step by step explanations

given data:

determine the horse power (h.p) = ?

force applied to move the box(f) = 10 pounds,

box lifted from a distance         (d) = 3 feet

time taken to lift                         (t) = 10 sec,

the horse power is defined as amount of work required to move a load. the horse power is equal to 550 foot-pound per second

                  1 h.p   = 550 foot-pound/second

it can also be defined as the the load that need to be move a body for certain distance in a certain amount of time.

mathematically,

                      h.p = (force × distance)/ time

                            = (10 × 3)/ 10

                            = 30/10

                            = 3 foot -pound/sec

hence, the horse power is needed to move the box is 3 foot-pound/second

important note: 1 h.p = 550 foot-pound/second = 746 watts

the correct choice is a .
