Force Due to Fluid Pressure
Find the area of the region bounded by
the three curves 𝑦 = 𝑥 2 , 𝑥 = 𝑦 3 ,
𝑥+𝑦 =2
Work
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.

Force Due to Fluid Pressure
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).
