I've got a Calculus test tomorrow, and while I feel pretty good about most of the material that's being covered, there's one type of problem that I'm having a hard time with, and it's a problem that our professor said is definitely going to be on the test.

The problem is calculating the amount of work required to pump water out of a container, given the dimensions of the container. I'm sort of starting to get it, but the textbook only has 3 or 4 examples of the problem, and it'd be really helpful if I could get some more problems for practice. Anyone know of a place I could go to find some?

    I've always been a big fan of www.askdrmath.com

    The website covers all sorts of concepts, both advanced and non, and was the first write-up of the Monty Hall Problem I'd ever read that actually made sense.

    They have searchable archives so I'm sure you can find something that will be helpful.

    EDIT: Hmm, looks like the website has changed since I was last there. Now it's mathforum.org

    They still have searchable archives though, and some really sensible explanations of more esoteric concepts.
