The volume of water displaced will be the same as sphere volume:
4/3xpixr^3 = 14.13cum
Mass of water = 1000*14.13 = 14,130KG

if the sphere is at rest merging fully in the water, then the displaced water volume is same as the volume of the sphere.
as you know
(mass/volume)=density
mass of the water in kg = 1000*(4/3)*pi*(1.5)^3
pi=22/7
or if the sphere is not fully mereged in water the data given is not enough,
the density of the sphere material , and whether the sphere is hollow or not ....are needed.
bye.

You have given the density of water, but what is the density of your sphere? It it is made out of poly styrene the displacement will be almost zero.
