NASA is planning to refuel its Lunar Transport Ship,

orbiting near Earth. Three identical Refueling Vessels


which carry the same amount of fuel and symmetrical
dimensions were released from a nearby space center in
order to refuel the Lunar Transport Ship. In order for them
to refuel properly, the Refueling Vessels should remain
vertical while fuel is being pumped. Each of the Refueling
Vessels has 3 cylindrical shaped Fuel Containers stacked
and perfectly aligned on top of each other inside. The first
and bottom most fuel container has a height of 6 feet and
a radius of 4 feet. The second and middle container, on
the other hand, has a height of 2 feet more than twice the
height of the first tank. While the third and upper most
container has a height of 10 feet less than three times the
height of the second container. The first and second
containers are completely filled with liquid fuel weighing
30 lbs per cubic ft. while the third container is only half
full of the same liquid. How much work would it take if all
the liquid fuel from the three identical Refueling Vessels
were to be pumped up 10 ft above the stack of
containers?
In order for them to refuel properly, the Refueling Vessels

3 cylindrical tanks of different heights but of the same
radii are to be lifted while being stacked together. Tank A
has a height of 6 ft. and a radius of 4 ft. The height of
Tank B is 2 ft. more than twice the height of Tank A. The
height of Tank C is 10 ft. less than thrice the height of
Tank B. Tanks A and B are completely filled with a liquid
weighing 30 lbs.per cubic ft. while Tank C is half-full with
the same liquid. How much work is done in moving all the
liquid 10 ft.above the stack of tanks?
