Tanks are used for storage and transportation of various gases, liquids and loose bodies – foodstuff, building materials, fuel, chemical reagents and other. In the form the tanks can be cylindrical, conical, in the form of a sphere or a parallelepiped. Of course, there can be also other forms of tanks, but we will stop on called. Let's look how the volume of these solids pays off.

Instruction
1. Capacity in the form of a cylinder. Measure by a roulette height and diameter of the basis of a cylinder – usually, cylinders for gas, barrels and tanks for various liquids and also glass, plastic and metal tins for tinned foodstuff have this form. Divide diameter into two – radius will turn out. Multiply the area of the basis of a cylinder (the area of a circle is equal 3, 14 * radius in a square) on its height. It is also cylinder volume.
2. Capacity in the form of a cone. Measure by a roulette diameter of the basis and height of a cone. By means of the calculator calculate capacity volume. It is equal to one third of the work of the area of the basis (circle) and height of a cone.
3. Capacity in the form of a sphere. Measure by a roulette diameter of a sphere. If it is difficult to execute it, measure circle length – clasp with a roulette a sphere on the equator or a zero meridian, i.e. in that place where length of a circle is maximum. To calculate diameter, the received value needs to be divided into number "пи", that is 3.14. Halve diameter – it will be radius. The volume of a sphere is equal 4/3 works of number "пи" and sphere radius cubed.
4. Capacity in the form of a parallelepiped. Measure by a roulette width, height and length of a parallelepiped, that is three parties having one general point. Multiply the received values. It will also be the size of volume of the capacity of this kind which is often used for storage and transportation of various liquids.
