Question

PLZZ HELP!! A spherical ball just fits inside a cylindrical can, 16 centimeters tall, with a diameter of 16 centimeters. Which expression gives the volume of the sphere in cubic centimeters?

Answer 1

formula for volume of a sphere is V=4/3 x pi x R63

if diameter = 16 than radius = 16/2 = 8

so the equation would be 4/3 x pi x 8^3

Answer 2

Option
`V=(4)/(3)\pi (8^(3))\ cm^(3)`

Explanation:

we know that

The volume of a sphere is equal to

`V=(4)/(3)\pi r^(3)`

In this problem we have

`r=16/2=8\ cm` -----> the radius is half the diameter

substitute

`V=(4)/(3)\pi (8^(3))\ cm^(3)`
