Question

Sara goes on a slingshot ride in an amusement park. She is strapped into a spherical ball that has a radius of 3·10^2 centimeters. What is the volume of air in the spherical ball? Use the formula

Answer 1

To solve for the volume of a spherical ball, we use the formula,

                                               V = (4πr^3)/3

The given radius of 3x10^2 centimeters converts to 3 meters. Solving for the volume,
 
                                                V = (4π)x(3^3)/3 = 36π m^3

Thus, Sara is trapped in a spherical ball with a volume of 36π m^3.
