A sphere is a perfectly round geometrical 3-dimensional object. It can be characterized as the set of all points located distance (radius) away from a given point (center). It is perfectly symmetrical, and has no edges or vertices.
Note: Earth is not a sphere! As mentioned above sphere has no edges or vertices. But earth is slightly flattened on the poles, which makes it's shape . It's shape is given a special name;
A sphere with radius has volume and surface area .
Interesting fact: Of all shapes with the same surface area, the sphere has the largest volume.
What is the volume of a sphere of radius ?
ANSWER
If the surface area of a sphere is what is the volume of the sphere?
ANSWER
You have a gold sphere whose volume is If you want the gold sphere to be twice as large in size, how much more gold do you have to bring to a jeweler in addition to the gold sphere you currently have?
From the formula for the volume of a sphere with radius you know that the radius of your gold sphere is Since you want the radius to be the amount of gold required to make the new, bigger sphere is Hence, the additional amount of gold required is
