Answer:

1)5875.882 gallons of water

2) 49004.85588 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Tank is like a cylinder.

Volume of cylinder = πr²h

r - radius of cylinder

h - height of cylinder

To find the volume of tank

Diameter d = 10 feet

r = d/2 = 10/2 = 5 feet

h = 10 feet

Volume of cylinder = πr²h = 3.14*5²*10 = 785 Cube feet

To find the gallons of water inside the tank

1 Cube feet = 7.48052 gallons

785 Cube feet = 5875.882 gallons

To find weight of water

1 gallon of water weighs 8.34 pounds,

5875.882 gallons = 8.34*5875.882 = 49004.85588 pounds
