How do you find the height of a sphere?

Question

If I have a cylinder that has 3 spheres with the radius of 3cm. What is the volume of all 3 spheres?

Now in the cylinder has 3cm of space lift on each gap.What is the space left in the cylinder

Answer 1

To find the height of a sphere you either use the diameter or you multiply the radius by 2.

The equation for volume of a sphere is V = 4/3πr³. The equation for a volume of a cylinder is V = Bh or V = πr²h. After you find the volume of the three spheres and the cylinder you subtract the total for the spheres from the total for the cylinder. This will give you the space left in the cylinder.

Answer 2

They gave us the radius of a sphere as 3 cm. The height of the sphere is its diameter: 6 cm.
