Answer

$3857.3 J$

Work Step by Step

Work done to lift the bucket: $$(10 kg)(9.8 m/s^{2})(12 m) = 1176 J$$ Work done to lift the rope: $$\int_{0}^{12} 7.84(12-y) dy= 564.5 J$$ Work done to lift the water: $\frac{36 kg}{12 m}=3kg/m$ $3(12-x)=36-3x$ $$\int_{0}^{12} 9.8(36-3y) dy= 2116.8J$$ Add all the work done on the bucket, rope, and water: $$1176J + 564.5J + 2116.8J = 3857.3J$$
