A pump discharges into a semi spherical tank at the bottom and cylindrical on top with a radius of 2 meters, and a total tank height of 8 meters. The flow rate is 80 gallons per minute and fluid specific gravity= 1.1. Determine the following: A) flow rate in kg/sec and time it takes to fill the tank in hours. B) the weight in tons of the liquid if full tank local gravity is 32.1 ft/sec squared. C) volume of the tank in metric gallons.
