Question

A fully inflated basketball has a radius of 12

Answer 1

The volume of air needed is equal to the volume of the sphere, which is 7,234.56 cm^3.

How to get the volume of a sphere?

The volume of air that we need is equal to the volume of the basketball.

Remember that for a sphere of radius R, the volume is:

V = (4/3)*3.14*R^3

In this case, the radius is 12cm, replacing that we get:

V = (4/3)*3.14*(12cm)^3 = 7,234.56 cm^3

Then, to fully inflate the ball, we need  7,234.56 cm^3 of air.
