A tank in the shape of a circular cone with its vertex at the bottom, base at the
top, is filled with a liquid that happens to weigh 1 Newton/cubic meter. The tank is 12
meters high, the radius of the base of the cone is 4 meters. Determine the works it takes
to empty the tank if the liquid needs to be pumped to a height 2 meters above the top
of the tank.
Suggestion: Use the axis of the cone as the y-axis, with the origin at the base of the
cone. The top of the tank is then at y = 12 and the water needs to be raised to y = 14.
Solution. Consider a “slab” of liquid at level y of thickness dy. By similar triangles this is an infinitesimal cylinder of radius y/3, height dy, thus of volume dV =
π(y/3)2 dy = πy 2 dy/9. Since the liquid weighs 1 Newton per cubic foot, dV equals the
weight of the slab in Newtons. The slab needs to be raised 14 − y meters. Thus
