Question

Christine fills a ball in the shape of a sphere with air .The diameter of the ball when it is filled is 18 inches.How much air in cubic inches is in the ball when it is filled

Answer 1

Answer:

$V=3052.08\ in^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The diameter of the ball, d = 18 inches

Radius, r = 9 inches

We need to find the air in cubic inches is in the ball when it is filled. The volume of a sphere is given by :

$V=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3\\\\=\dfrac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times (9)^3\\\\=3052.08\ in^3$

So, $3052.08\ in^3$ of air is in the ball.
