Your company has been asked you to design a storage tank for liquid petroleum gas. The customer's specifications call for a cylindrical tank with hemispherical ends, and the tank is to hold (8000 m') of gas. The customer also wants to use the smallest amount of material possible in constructing the tank. By depending on Lagrange method, what radius (r) and height (h) do you recommend for the cylindrical portion of the tank? (Nate : For hemispherical, volume & surface area = 2nr?)
