the volume of a sphere
2006-08-31 20:46:44 · answer #1 · answered by Anonymous · 8⤊ 0⤋
You need not worry that much, it is simply the volume of a sphere 4/3 pi r cubed. In three-dimensional Euclidean geometry, a sphere is the set of points in R3 which are at distance r from a fixed point of that space, where r is a positive real number called the radius of the sphere. The fixed point is called the center or centre, and is not part of the sphere itself. The special case of r = 1 is called a unit sphere.
The surface area of a sphere of radius r is
A = 4 π r2
and its enclosed volume is
V = 4/3 π r3
The sphere has the smallest surface area among all surfaces enclosing a given volume and it encloses the largest volume among all closed surfaces with a given surface area. For this reason, the sphere appears in nature: for instance bubbles and small water drops are roughly spherical, because the surface tension locally minimizes surface area.
A sphere can also be defined as the surface formed by rotating a circle about its diameter. If the circle is replaced by an ellipse, the shape becomes a spheroid

The expression in the question gives the volume of a Sphere.
In general the Volume(V) of a sphere having a radius r is given by:
V = (4/3)*pi*(r^3).

4/3 times pi times the radius cubed stands for the volume of a sphere.

It is the formula to figure the volume of a sphere.
4/3 x pi x r cubed
pi = 3.1614
r = the radius of the sphere
cubed means to multiply the radius by itself 3 times: r*r*r = r cubed.
Exampled: What is the volume of a sphere with a radius of 3 inches?
The radius = 3 inches, so r cubed = 3 x 3 x 3 = 9
so, 4/3 x 3.1416 x 9 = 37.7 cubic inches. Got it?

It is definitely the expression for volume of a Sphere.
Where,
pi= 3.1416......
=area of a circle having unit radius.
r = radius of the sphere.
Say for example, let's consider a problem.
A snooker ball has a radius(r) of 4cm.What is the volume?
Solution:
Volume V=(4/3)pi(r^3)
=(4/3)π(r^3)
=(4/3)x 3.14 x(4^3)
=(4/3)x 3.14 x(4x4x4)
=267.9466 cm^3 or cm cubed

I would try to make everyone happy. And i would be nicer to my friends and family. I would not hurt anyone emotionally or physically. I would not be such a fool and act childish. I wouldn't act stupid and i would be loyal. I would try harder in school and get better grades. I would treat my boyfriend with more care and protect him for harm (in which i have failed to do). I would listen to my father. I would say goodbye before my Aunt died that Tragic night. I would try hard to get my grandmother to stop smoking so she wouldn't die. I would pay more attention to my surroundings, and be less of a coward and protect my loved ones so they wouldn't feel any more pain. I would stop Willow before she hurt my friends.

Don't panic. It's just the formula for finding the volume of a sphere.
