Question

The diameter of a spherical basketball is 10 inches. What is the volume of the basketball? Round your answer to the nearest cubic inch.

Answer 1

Given aData:

The ball is of spherical shape.

The radius is, r = 10 in.

We have, the expression for calculating the volume of a sphere is,

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

Substituting for r, we get,

`V=(4)/(3)*3.14*10^3=4186.66=4187in^3`
