Sewage at a certain pumping station is raised vertically by 5.49 m at the rate of 1 890 000 liters each day. The sewage, of density 1 050 kg/m3, enters and leaves the pump at atmospheric pressure and through pipes of equal diameter. (a) Find the output mechanical power of the lift station. (b) Assume an electric motor continuously operating with average power 5.90 kW runs the pump. Find its efficiency.
According to a local scientist, a typical rain cloud at an altitude of 2 m will contain, on average, 3×107 kg of water vapour. Determine how many hours it would take a 2.5 kW pump to raise the same amount of water from the Earth’s surface to the cloud’s position.

A bucket begins holding 25 kgs of sand. The bucket is to be lifted to the top of a 20 meter tall building by a rope with density 0.3 kg/m. However, the bucket has a hole in it, and leaks 0.3 kgs of sand each meter it is lifted. Find the work done lifting the bucket and rope to the top of the building. Use 9.8 m/s² for gravity.

Arteriosclerotic plaques forming on the inner wall of arteries can decrease the effective cross-sectional area of an artery. Even small changes in the effective area of an artery can lead to very large changes in the blood pressure in the artery and possibly to the collapse of the blood vessel. Imagine a healthy artery, with blood flow velocity of vo equals 0.14 m/s and mass per volume of p = 1050 kg/m³. The kinetic energy per unit volume of blood is given pv². This is one of the terms in Bernoulli's equation. Imagine that plague has narrowed an artery to 1/10 of its normal cross-sectional area, a 90% blockage. 1 2 by ko = a) Compared to normal blood flow velocity, vo, what is the velocity of blood as it passes through this blockage? b) By what factor does the kinetic energy per unit of blood volume change as the blood passes through this blockage? c) Using Bernoulli's equation as the blood passes through this blockage, what happens to the blood pressure?
A leaky 10-kg bucket is lifted from the ground to a height of 15 m at a constant speed with a rope that weighs 0.5 kg/m. Initially the bucket contains 45 kg of water, but the water leaks at a constant rate and finishes draining just as the bucket reaches the 15-m level. Find the work done. (Use 9.8 m/s2 for g.)

Atmospheric conditions near the Gulf of Mexico are such that a cloud at an altitude of 1.50 km contains 3.20 × 10' kg of water vapor. How long (in years) would it take for a 2.21 kW pump to raise this amount of water (at a constant speed) from Earth's surface to the altitude of the cloud? yr
A bucket full of sand has a mass of 20 kg (including the bucket and the sand). The bucket is to be lifted to the top of a building 15 meters tall by a rope of negligible weight. However, the bucket has a hole in it, and leaks 0.1 kgs of sand each meter it is lifted. Find the work done lifting the bucket to the top of the building. Hint: Force = (mass)(acceleration). For this problem, the force will be a product where a m 9.8 82 Joules
Suppose you have an ice cream cone full of melted ice cream. The ice cream cone is in the shape of a right circular cone and is 0.5 feet tall with a width (diameter) of 0.25 feet at the top. You decide to drink the melted ice cream using a straw positioned at the top of the cone. How much work is necessary to drink all of the ice cream through the straw? Note that the approximate weight-density of melted ice cream is 64.05 pounds per cubic foot. Round your final answer to 3 decimal places.
