Problema Solution

a softball has a diameter of 5 inches. what is the volume of matter on the inside?

Answer provided by our tutors

We will use the general equation:


(volume of a sphere)=(4/3)(pi)(r^3)


The radius is 1/2 the diameter (or 2.5in). Therefore, we have:


v=(4/3)(pi)(2.5^3)


Solving, we get:

v=65.45 in^3
