7. A water tank has the shape of a paraboloid of revolution: its shape is obtained by
rotating the parabola y = x2 /4, for 0 < x < 4, around the y-axis. Assume that the
water in the tank is 3 ft deep. Set up, but DO NOT EVALUATE, the integral to
find the work required to pump water out of the top of the tank, to lower the water
level to 2 ft (the weight of water is 62.5 lbs/ft3 ).

8. A tank contains 20 kg of salt dissolved in 5000 L of water. Brine that contains 0.03
kg of salt per liter of water enters the tank at a rate of 25 L/min. The solution is
kept thoroughly mixed and drains from the tank at the same rate. How much salt
remains in the tank after half an hour? How long does it take for the concentration
of salt in the tank to reach 0.01kg/L?
