A vertical spring A 10-kg mass is attached to a spring that hangs vertically and is stretched 2 m from the equilibrium position of the spring. Assume a linear spring with F(x) = kx.
a. How much work is required to compress the spring and lift the mass 0.5 m?

82–84. Fluid Forces Suppose the following plates are placed on a vertical wall so that the top of the plate is 2 m below the surface of a pool that is filled with water. Compute the force on each plate.

A circular plate with a radius of 2 m

Force on a dam Find the total force on the face of a semicircular dam with a radius of 20 m when its reservoir is full of water. The diameter of the semicircle is the top of the dam.

Winding a chain A 30-m-long chain hangs vertically from a cylinder attached to a winch. Assume there is no friction in the system and the chain has a density of 5kg/m.

b. How much work is required to wind the chain onto the cylinder if a 50-kg block is attached to the end of the chain?

Leaky Bucket A 1-kg bucket resting on the ground contains 3 kg of water. How much work is required to raise the bucket vertically a distance of 10 m if water leaks out of the bucket at a constant rate of 1/5 kg/m? Assume the weight of the rope used to raise the bucket is negligible. (Hint: Use the definition of work, W = ∫a^bF(y) dy, where F is the variable force required to lift an object along a vertical line from y=a to y=b.)

Force on the end of a tank Determine the force on a circular end of the tank in Figure 6.78 if the tank is full of gasoline. The density of gasoline is ρ = 737 kg/m³.

How much work is required to push a chair across the floor with a force of $F=8\mathrm{lb}$ from $x=6\mathrm{ft}$ to $x=9\mathrm{ft}$ along the $x$-axis?

How much work is done by a person lifting a $10\mathrm{lb}$ bucket $4\mathrm{ft}$ off the ground?

How much work is required to move an object with a force of $F\left(x\right)=4x^{3}N$ acting along the $x$-axis from $x=0m$ to $x=2m$?
