Let radius of cylinder = r = radius of ball
(4/3)π r³ = 36 π
r³ = 27
r = 3
d = 6
h = 18
V (cylinder) = π r² h
V (cylinder) = π (9) (18) = 509 units³

Assuming that the tube is a cylinder and holds the balls tightly:
Volume of a ball:
V=4/3Ïr^3=36Ï.
Therefore r=((3/4)•36)^(1/3) = 27^(1/3)= 3.
Therefore the radius of the cylinder is 3, and the height of the cylinder is three times the diameter of each ball: h=3•2r=3•6=18.
This gives the volume of the cylinder is
V=Ïr^2h= Ï•3^2•18 = 162Ï.

The volume of the cylinder is 162 pi.
Here's why/how:
One ball's volume, 4 pi r^3 / 3 = 36 pi, so that r^3 = 27, i.e, r = 3.
The height h of the cylinder is 6 r (= 3 diameters of 2r each).
Its volume is therefore
pi r^2 h = pi 3^2 * 6*3 = 9*18 pi = 162 pi.
Live long and prosper.

From the volume of the sphere, determine its radius. Assuming the sphere fits snuggly, the cylinder has the same radius.
The cylinder can hold three tennis balls in a row. This means it is three tennis balls in height.
Use the cylinder volume formula with this radius and height.

if it holds three tenis balls, then its height is equal to 3 times the diameter and its radius equal to the radius of the tennis ball
u know that the volume of the tennis ball (sphere) = 36pi
so 4/3 * pi * r^3 = 36pi
so r = 3
the volume of a cylinder is
pi * r^2 * h, where h is just 3*d = 2*2*r = 12
so volume =
pi * 9 * 12 = 108pi

V=36Pi=r^3*4*Pi/3
r=3
Can diameter=6 and height = 18
Volume of can= A*h=Pi*3^2*18=162*Pi

The volume of a sphere is 4/3*Ï*r^3 which converts to (Ï*D^3)/6
Since a cylinder holds three stacked tennis balls:
36 = 3*(ÏD^3)/6
D=2.84
The height is 3*2.84=8.52
the base has an area of Ï*1.42^2 = 6.335
V = 8.52*6.335 =53.97pi

36(pi) = 4/3 (pi) r^3
(36pi)/(4/3 (pi) ) = r^3
~27 = r^3
r = 3 (approximately)
(18)(pi)3^2 = 508.93
v = 508.93 units^3
