Question: A special table in Jim's high school chemistry lab pumps liquid methane from an inverted conical reservoir into a series of test tube located 5

A special table in Jim's high school chemistry lab pumps liquid methane from an inverted conical reservoir into a series of test tube located 50 cm above the top of the reservoir. The reservoir is 40 cm deep and has a base radius of 35 cm .
If the reservoir is initially filled to capacity, the density \(\rho \) of the methane is \(420\mathrm{~kg}/\mathrm{m}^{3}\), and the acceleration due to gravity is approximated as \(10\mathrm{~m}/\mathrm{s}^{2}\), calculate the amount of work required by the table's pump to completely empty the contents of the reservoir into the test tubes.
Give the exact answer. Do not round.
