Respuesta :

Part a: The radius of the second sphere is 5 inches.

Part b: The volume of the second sphere is 523.33 in³

Part c; The radius of the third sphere is 1.875 inches.

Part d: The volume of the third sphere is 27.59 in³

Explanation:

Given that the radius of the sphere is 2.5 inches.

Part a: We need to determine the radius of the second sphere.

Given that the second sphere has twice the radius of the given sphere.

Radius of the second sphere = 2 × 2.5 = 5 inches

Thus, the radius of the second sphere is 5 inches.

Part b: we need to determine the volume of the second sphere.

The formula to find the volume of the sphere is given by

[tex]V=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3[/tex]

Substituting [tex]\pi=3.14[/tex] and [tex]r=5[/tex] , we get,

[tex]V=\frac{4}{3} (3.14)(125)[/tex]

[tex]V=\frac{1580}{3}[/tex]

[tex]V=523.3333 \ in^3[/tex]

Rounding off to two decimal places, we have,

[tex]V=523.33 \ in^3[/tex]

Thus, the volume of the second sphere is 523.33 in³

Part c: We need to determine the radius of the third sphere

Given that the third sphere has a diameter that is three-fourths of the diameter of the given sphere.

Hence, we have,

Diameter of the third sphere = [tex]\frac{3}{4} (5)=3.75[/tex]

Radius of the third sphere = [tex]\frac{3.75}{2} =1.875[/tex]

Thus, the radius of the third sphere is 1.875 inches

Part d: We need to determine the volume of the third sphere

The formula to find the volume of the sphere is given by

[tex]V=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3[/tex]

Substituting [tex]\pi=3.14[/tex] and [tex]r=1.875[/tex] , we get,

[tex]V=\frac{4}{3} (3.14)(1.875)^3[/tex]

[tex]V=\frac{4}{3} (3.14)(6.59)[/tex]

[tex]V=27.5901 \ in^3[/tex]

Rounding off to two decimal places, we have,

[tex]V=27.59 \ in^3[/tex]

Thus, the volume of the third sphere is 27.59 in³

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a: The radius of the second sphere is 5 inches.

Part b: The volume of the second sphere is 523.33 in³

Part c; The radius of the third sphere is 1.875 inches.

Part d: The volume of the third sphere is 27.60 in³
