Question

A spherical Boulder is 12 ft in diameter and waighs almost 6 tons. Find the volume. Use 3.14 for pie.

Answer 1

Answer:

Volume, $V=904.32\ \text{feet}^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have, a spherical Boulder having a diameter of 12 feet. Its weight is almost 6 tons.

The volume of a spherical shaped object is given by :

$V=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

r is radius of spherical Boulder , r = 6 ft

Plugging all the values, such that :

$V=\dfrac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times (6)^3\\\\V=904.32\ \text{feet}^3$

So, the volume of a spherical Boulder is $904.32\ \text{feet}^3$.
