Jack wants to know how much water a sphere can hold with a diameter of 16 cm. Find the volume. Use 3.14 for pi.

Respuesta :

Step-by-step explanation:

the volume of a sphere is

4/3 × pi × r³

with r being the radius (half the diameter).

so, we have

V = 4/3 × 3.14 × 8³ = 4/3 × 3.14 × 512 = 2,143.573333... cm³

now, how much water is that ?

we need to know that a cube of 10 cm side length (= 10×10×10 = 1000 cm³) contains 1 liter of water.

so, our sphere here can contain 2.143573333... liters of water.
