Water is drawn from a well in a 5kg drum...

Water is drawn from a well in a `5kg` drum of capacity `55L` by two ropes connected to the top of the drum. The linear mass density of each rope is `0.5kgm^-1`. The work done in lifting water to the ground from the surface of water in the well `20m` below is
`[g=10ms^-2]`

A

`1.4xx10^(4)J`

B

`1.5xx10^(4)J`

C

`9.8xx10xx6J`

D

18J

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Work done in lifting water and drum
`60xx10xx20J=12000J`
Total mass of ropes =`40xx0.5 kg=20` kg
Work done in the case of ropes
`20xx10xx10=2000J`
Total work done =14000 J
