Question

A tank in the shape of a hemisphere has a diameter of 8 feet. If the liquid that fills the tank has a density of 86 pounds per cubic foot, what is the total weight of the liquid in the tank, to the nearest full pound?

Answer 1

209.07 pounds

Explanation:

radius= 8÷2=4 feet

volume of hemisphere=((4/3)×(22/7)×r^3)/2

=134.09 cubic feet

Mass=density × volume

=86×134.09

=209.07 pounds
