A ball bearing is shaped like a sphere and has a diameter of 2.5 cm. What is the volume contained inside the ball bearing? Use 3.14 for pi. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

8.18 cm3
7.15 cm3
7.08 cm3
6.89 cm3

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is 8.18 cm ^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:

4/3 x pi (3.14) x 1.25 ^3

Pi equals 3.14 and you have to divide 2.5 by 2 because you have to use the radius^3. The other person who answered the question was wrong, so please dont use their answer to help you. Hope this helps you. :)

The volume contained inside the ball bearing is 8.18 cm³

Volume of a sphere:

The ball bearing is shaped like a sphere. Therefore, the volume contained inside the ball bearing is the volume of a sphere.  

  • v = 4 / 3 πr³

where

r = radius

Therefore,

diameter = 2(radius)

Therefore,

radius = diameter / 2

r = 2.5 / 2 = 1.25 cm

π = 3.14

v = 4 / 3 × 3.14 × 1.25³

v = 24.53125 / 3

v = 8.17708333333

v = 8.18 cm³
