volume_mute

A spherical ball has a radius of \(3\text{ m}\). Determine its volume in terms of \(\pi\).

r = 3 m

Correct Answer

36π m³

Explanation

The volume of a sphere is given by the formula \(V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3\). Given \(r = 3\text{ m}\):

\[ V = \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times (3)^3 \]
\[ V = \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times 27 = 4 \times \pi \times 9 = 36\pi\text{ m}^3 \]
