The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height. Given that the volume of the cylinder is 36 cm^3, we can substitute the volume as 36 and since the height is equal to twice the radius, we can say h = 2r.
36 = πr^2(2r)
36 = 2πr^3
r^3 = 18/π
r = (18/π)^(1/3)
The volume of a sphere is given by the formula V = (4/3)πr^3. Given that the radius of the sphere is the same as the cylinder, we can substitute r = (18/π)^(1/3) into the formula for the sphere's volume.
V_sphere = (4/3)π((18/π)^(1/3))^3
V_sphere = (4/3)π(18/π)
V_sphere = 24 cm^3
Therefore, the volume of the sphere is 24 cm^3.
Use the relationship among the formulas for the volumes of cones, cylinders, and spheres to solve the following problem. The volume of a cylinder is 36 cm3 . What is the volume of a sphere if its radius is the same as the cylinder’s and the height of the cylinder is equal to the sphere’s diameter?(1 point)
