Early in the nineteenth century, James Watt invented
the steam engine. In order to convince people, who
relied heavily on horses for mechanical work, he
demonstrated how useful his steam engine was by
utilizing a horse that lifted water from a well over a
certain period of time and called the corresponding
power expended “one horsepower”. Assume that
water has a mass density of 1.0 x 10^3 kg/m3, that
the well was 20m deep, and that the horse worked
for 8 hours. How many liters of water did the horse
raise from the well? Use the following constants: 1
