A factory's pressure tank rests on the upper base of a vertical pipe whose inside diameter is 1 ft. and whose length is 40 ft. The tank is a vertical cylinder surmounted by a cone, and it has a hemispherical base. If the alti-tudes of the cylinder and the cone are respectively 6 ft. and 3 ft. and if all three parts of the tank have an inside diameter of 6 ft., find the volume of water in the tank and pipe when full.
