1 answer:
Answer:
Approximately 42 times larger
Step-by-step explanation:
The diameter of a sphere is 2,160 mm.
The diameter of a second sphere is 7,520 mm.
To see how many times larger is the diameter of second sphere is than the diameter of the second sphere, we divide to get:
To see how many times larger the volume is, we cube both sides
This implies that
Therefore the volume of the second sphere is approximately 42 times larger

The disk method will only involve a single integral. I've attached a sketch of the bounded region (in red) and one such disk made by revolving it around the y-axis.
Such a disk has radius x = 1/y and height/thickness ∆y, so that the volume of one such disk is
π (radius) (height) = π (1/y)² ∆y = π/y² ∆y
and the volume of a stack of n such disks is
where is a point sampled from the interval [1, 5].
As we refine the solid by adding increasingly more, increasingly thinner disks, so that ∆y converges to 0, the sum converges to a definite integral that gives the exact volume V,
