Calculus 2 - Determining Work in Pumping Examples

Three examples of Calculus 2 pumping problems determining total work to empty or fill conical or cylindrical tanks.

Example 3 covers a metric example that requires us to multiply by the acceleration due to gravity in order to determine the weight of the fluid, given its mass density.
