Solution

The correct option is C 1800 J
Given,
m=15kg
g=10m/s2
x=15m
Mass varies from the deep of well to height x=15m
Let consider, ϕ is change in mass per unit length
ϕ=dmdx
dm=ϕdx=615dx
Mass of water left in bucket, M=mdm
Work done, W=F.x, change in potential energy
W=(Mg).x
W=(mdm)gx
W=mgxdmgxdx
W=mgxdmgx22
W=15×10×15615×1015×152
Q=2250450
W=1800J
The correct option is C.
