Your tank is a cylinder with hemispherical end caps. Although you said "cylindrical midsection," we will interpret that to mean the height, h, of the cylinder, which is six feet. We also infer that the radius of the sphere is equal to the radius of the cylinder, which must be the case if the tank has hemispherical end caps. So, the volume of the tank is equal to the sum of the volumes of the two hemispheres and the cylinder.

The equation for the volume of a cylinder is V = pi*r2*h. If you put the two hemispheres together, you have a sphere whose volume is V = (4/3)*pi*r3.

So, V = (4/3)*pi*r3 + pi*r2*h = pi*r2*(4r/3 + h),where h = 6 in this case.

How do you find the volume of a horizontal cylindrical tank that has a hemispherical end caps?

Measure the length of the straight portion of the tank (l) and the radius (r). The two hemispherical end caps equate to a sphere. The volume of a sphere = 4/3πr³ The volume of the straight portion of the cylinder is, πr²l Add to two portions together to get the total volume = 4/3πr³ + πr²l
