A can holds 4 golf balls. The diameter of each golf ball is 5 cm. What is the volume of the empty space inside the can?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Volume of the empty space in the can  is 327.05  [tex]cm^3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of golf ball the can holds = 4

Diameter of the golf ball = 5 cm

To Find:

Volume of the empty space in the can = ?

Solution:

Step 1:  Finding the volume of one golf ball

Ball is shape of the sphere

So lets use the volume of the sphere formula

Volume of the  golf ball = [tex]\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3[/tex]

Radius =[tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex] = 2.5 cm

Substituting the values

Volume of the  golf ball  

=[tex]\frac{4}{3} \pi \times(2.5)^3[/tex]

=[tex]\frac{4}{3} \pi \times (15.625)[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{4}{3} \times 49.06[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{196.24}{3}[/tex]

= 65.41

Step 2:  Finding the volume of empty space of the can

volume of empty space of the can =  volume of 5 golf ball

= 5 X 65.41

= 327.05
