Mass density of water in a horse trough = 1000 kg/m3, weight
density of water = 9800 N/m3.
1. A mathematician designs a funnel to fill his horse trough.
The funnel is infinitely long. In fact, it can be described by rotating
the curve
about
the x axis for x between 1 and infinity. Find the volume of the funnel.
2. A mathematician designs a horse trough of infinite length
whose cross sections are rectangles of width one
centimeter and height
centimeters.
If the trough is filled with water, is the mass of the water infinite or
finite? Hint, the mass of water in the trough in grams is
given by
.
If the integral converges, estimate its value to within 3 decimal places.
3. The ends of a horse trough 319 meters long are equilateral
triangles having sides of length 2 meters. If the horse trough is full
of water, find the hydrostatic force on one end of the trough.
4. The ends of a horse trough 10 meters long are semi-circles
of radius 2 meters. If the horse trough is full of water, find the work
required to pump all of it into another horse trough 10 meters above the
top of the trough.
5. You were kicked out of your dorm because you had a horse
trough full of ice in your room for chilling beverages. Now you are homeless
and must sleep in your horse trough. However, a manufacturer of horse troughs
offers you a job if you can just evaluate the improper integral
.
6. You are driving your pickup, with a horse trough in the
back, when suddenly you see a four car pile up
ahead. (No horse troughs were injured.) Compute the improper
integral
.
If it diverges just say so, if it converges, find its value.
7. The region bounded by the curves y = x and y = x2 is rotated
about the line y = 3. Compute the volume of the resulting solid (note
the following would make a poor horse trough, cuz there's a hole in it.)
