A sphere has a radius of 3 cm. What is the volume of the sphere?
Solution:
We know that the volume of the sphere can be found by using radius or diameter that is, diameter is twice the radius (d = 2r )
The formula for the volume of a sphere in terms of radius is
V = (4/3) π r3
Here the radius of the sphere is 3cm ( given )
So lets substitute the given value of r in the above formula
V = (4/3) π (3)3 = (4/3) π 27 = 36π.
And the value of π is 3.14
V = 113.04 cm3
Therefore, the volume of the sphere is 113.04 cm3.
A sphere has a radius of 3 cm. What is the volume of the sphere?
Summary:
A sphere has a radius of 3 cm. The volume of the sphere is 113.04 cm3.
