1 Volume of Spheres Unit 3: Geometric Applications of Exponents

2 A sphere is the set of points in three dimensions that are a fixed distance from a given point, the center. A plane that intersects a sphere through its center divides the two halves or hemispheres. The edge of a hemisphere is a great circle. Volume of Spheres

3 The volume of a hemisphere is exactly halfway between the volume of a cone and a cylinder with the same radius r and height equal to r. Volume of Spheres

5 Find the volume of a sphere with radius 12 cm, both in terms of  and to the nearest tenth. Use 3.14 for . = 2304 cm 3  7,234.6 cm 3 Volume of a sphere Substitute 12 for r. 4343 V = r 3 = (12) 3 4343 Volume of Spheres

6 Find the volume of a sphere with radius 3 m, both in terms of  and to the nearest tenth. Use 3.14 for . = 36 m 3  113.0 m 3 Volume of a sphere Substitute 3 for r. 4343 V = r 3 = (3) 3 4343 Volume of Spheres

7 The surface area of a sphere is four times the area of a great circle.  50.3 units 2 Volume of Spheres

8 Find the surface area, both in terms of  and to the nearest tenth. Use 3.14 for . = 36 in 2  113.0 in 2 S = 4r 2 = 4(3 2 ) Surface area of a sphere Substitute 3 for r. Volume of Spheres

9 The moon has a radius of 1738 km. Find the surface area, both in terms of  and to the nearest tenth. Use 3.14 for . = 12,082,576 km 2  37,939,288.6 km 2 S = 4r 2 = 4(1738 2 ) Surface area of a sphere Substitute 1738 for r. 1738 km Volume of Spheres

10 Sphere:  310,464 cm 3 Rectangular Prism: = (44)(84)(84) = 310,464 cm 3 V = lwh V = r 3 = (42 3 ) 4343 4343  74,088 22 7 4343 Compare the volumes and surface areas of a sphere with radius 42 cm with that of a rectangular prism measuring 44 cm  84 cm  84 cm. Volume of Spheres

11 S = 4r 2 = 4(42 2 ) = 7,056 = 28,896 cm 2 S = 2(44)(84) + 2(44)(84) + 2(84)(84) Sphere: Rectangular Prism: S = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh  7,056  22,176 cm 2 22 7 The sphere and the prism have approximately the same volume, but the prism has a larger surface area. Volume of Spheres

12 Sphere:  38,808 mm 3 Rectangular Prism: = (22)(42)(42) = 38,808 mm 3 V = lwh V = r 3 = (21 3 ) 4343 4343  9261 22 7 4343 Compare the volume and surface area of a sphere with radius 21 mm with that of a rectangular prism measuring 22  42  42 mm. Volume of Spheres

13 S = 4r 2 = 4(21 2 ) = 1764 = 7224 mm 2 S = 2(22)(42) + 2(22)(42) + 2(42)(42) Sphere: Rectangular Prism: S = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh  1764  5544 mm 2 22 7 The sphere and the prism have approximately the same volume, but the prism has a larger surface area. Volume of Spheres
