6. A tank, formed by rotating the curve
![]()
around the y-axis, is filled with water, which weighs 62.5 pounds per cubic foot. How much work is done by pumping all the water in the tank to a point 10 foot above the top of the tank?
SolutionL
(In the handout the second factor in x =sqrt(y)*(y-12) should be 12- y.)
The graph of
![]()
looks like this:

A typical circular cross section at height y will have volume Pi x2 dy,
weight 62.5 Pi x2 dy, and will be lifted (22-y) feet. So the work done
will be the integral
![]()
