Some racquet balls are sold in cylindrical cans of three balls. Each ball has a diameter of 2.25 inches. The can has a diameter
of 2.25 inches and is 6.75 inches tall. Find the volume of the empty space in the can. Use 3.14 for p. Round to the nearest hundredth.
2 answers:
Volume of 1 ball = 4/3 π r³ = 4/3 (3.14) (2.25 ÷ 2)³ = 5.961 in³
Volume of 3 balls = 5.961 x 3 = 17.883 in³
Volume of cylinder = πr²h = (3.14) (2.25 ÷ 2)² (6.75) = 26.825 in³
Empty Space = 26.825 - 17.883 = 8.94 in³ (nearest hundredth)
Answer: 8.94 in³
In order to find the empty space we need to find the total space and the filled space.
The formula we use to find the volume of the cans or any cylinder is:

Plug in the givens:

Simplify:

Now let's find the balls' volume. These cans can hold 3 balls:

Take the cube:

Solve:

To find the empty space:

The empty space is 8.94 in3.
