Example

A particle is moving along the x axis under the action of a force of f(x)
pounds when the particle is x feet from the origin. If 𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑥 2 + 4,
find the work done as the particle moves from the point where x=2 to
the point where x=4.

Example

A force of 750 pounds compresses a spring 3 inches from its natural


length of 15 inches. Find the work done in compressing the spring an
additional 3 inches.

Example

A water tank in the form of an inverted right-circular cone is 10m


across the top and 12m deep. If the surface of the water is 3m below
the top of the tank, how much work is required to empty the tank by
pumping all of the water to the top of the tank?

Fluid Pressure
Force Due to Fluid Pressure

The force F exerted by a fluid of constant weight-density w (per unit


volume) against a submerged vertical plane region from y = c to y = d
is

𝐹 = 𝑤 lim ෍ ℎ(𝑦𝑖 )𝐿(𝑦𝑖 )∆𝑦


| ∆ |→0
𝑖=1
𝑑

where h(y) is the depth of the fluid at y and L(y) is the horizontal
length of the region at y.
Example

A vertical gate in a dam has the shape of an


isosceles trapezoid 8ft across the top and 6ft
across the bottom, with a height of 5ft. What
is the fluid force on the gate when the top of
the gate is 4ft below the surface of the water?
Use 𝜌 = 62.4 (weight density of water).

Example

A trough having a trapezoidal cross section is full of water. If the


trapezoid is 3 ft wide at the top, 2ft wide at the bottom, and 2ft deep,
find the total force due to water pressure on one end of the trough.

Example

A circular observation window on a


marine science ship has a radius of 1 ft,
and the center of the window is 8ft
below water level. What is the fluid
force on the window? Use 𝜌 = 64

The ends of a gasoline tank are semicircular regions, each with a radius
of 2ft. Find the force due to fluid pressure on one end if the tank is full
of gasoline having weight density 41 𝑙𝑏/𝑓𝑡 3 . Use 𝜌 = 41 (weight
density of gasoline).
