An aquarium 2 m long, 1 m wide, and 1 m deep is full of water. Find the work (in J) needed to pump half of the water out of the aquarium. Use the fact that the density of water is 1000kg/m3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The work is define as the integral of the force times distance. So we have:

Now, we can write the force in terms of density.

V is the volume (V=2*1*1=2 m³)

So the work will be:

The limit of integration is between 0 and 0.5 because we want to pump half of the water out of the aquarium.

I hope it helps you!
