Beyond the Answer
To find out how much water needs to be pumped into the tank, we first calculate the total volume of the hemispherical tank. The formula for the volume of a hemisphere is \( V = \frac{2}{3} \pi r^3 \). The internal diameter of the tank is 14 m, giving us a radius \( r = \frac{14}{2} = 7 \) m. Plugging this into the formula: \[ V = \frac{2}{3} \pi (7)^3 = \frac{2}{3} \pi (343) \approx 718.4 \, \text{m}^3. \] Since \(1 \, \text{m}^3 = 1000 \, \text{liters}\), the total volume in kilolitres is \(718.4 \, \text{m}^3 = 718.4 \, \text{kl} \). Now, the tank currently has 40 kilolitres of water, so we need to find the difference: \[ 718.4 \, \text{kl} - 40 \, \text{kl} = 678.4 \, \text{kl}. \] Thus, the volume of water pumped into the tank is **678.4 kilolitres**.
