A silo consists of a cylinder and a hemisphere. So, the volume of the silo is the volume of a cylinder plus the volume of the hemisphere.
Volume of a sphere: 4/3πr3 ---> Hemisphere: 2/3πr3
Volume of a cylinder: πr2h
So, combining the two equations, the full equation to finding the volume of a silo:
V = 2/3πr3 + πr2h
