Question

What is the volume of a hemisphere with a radius of 9.2 cm, rounded to the nearest tenth of a cubic centimeter?

Answer 1

Answer:

volume of the hemisphere   ≈1577.5 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the formula for calculating the volume of a hemisphere, we will follow the steps below:

write the formula for calculating the volume of a hemisphere.

volume of a hemisphere = volume of a sphere ÷2

                                        = $\frac{4}{3}$πr³   ÷   2

                                        =$\frac{2}{3}$ πr³

WHERE r is the radius

from the question given, radius= 9.2 cm  

π is a constant and is ≈ 3.14

we can now proceed to insert the values into the equation

volume of a hemisphere =  $\frac{2}{3}$ πr³

                                          = $\frac{2}{3}$ × 3.14 ×9.2³

                                           = $\frac{2}{3}$ × 3.14 ×753.571

                                          ≈1577.5 cm³   to the nearest tenth of cubic centimeter

volume of the hemisphere   ≈1577.5 cm³
