Given:
- Radius \( r \)
- Height of the cylinder and cone \( h = 2r \)
Volume formulas:
- Sphere: \( V_{sphere} = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 \)
- Cylinder: \( V_{cylinder} = \pi r^2 h = \pi r^2 (2r) = 2 \pi r^3 \)
- Cone: \( V_{cone} = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 (2r) = \frac{2}{3} \pi r^3 \)
To find the correct relationship:
- \( V_{cylinder} - V_{cone} = 2 \pi r^3 - \frac{2}{3} \pi r^3 = \frac{6}{3} \pi r^3 - \frac{2}{3} \pi r^3 = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 = V_{sphere} \)
Thus, the relationship is:
- Sphere = Cylinder - Cone
**Answer**: \( \text{Sphere} = \text{Cylinder} - \text{Cone} \)
### Volume of the Sphere with Given Cylinder Volume
Given:
- Volume of the cylinder \( V_{cylinder} = 36 \, \text{cm}^3 \)
- Height of the cylinder \( h = 2r \)
Since \( V_{cylinder} = 2 \pi r^3 \):
- \( 36 = 2 \pi r^3 \)
- \( r^3 = \frac{36}{2 \pi} = \frac{18}{\pi} \)
Volume of the sphere \( V_{sphere} = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 \):
- \( V_{sphere} = \frac{4}{3} \pi \left( \frac{18}{\pi} \right) \)
- \( V_{sphere} = \frac{4 \cdot 18}{3} \)
- \( V_{sphere} = 24 \, \text{cm}^3 \)
**Answer**: \( 24 \, \text{cm}^3 \)
### Volume of a Sphere Given Volume of a Cone
Given:
- Volume of the cone \( V_{cone} = 253 \pi \, \text{cm}^3 \)
- Height of the cone \( h = 2r \)
Since \( V_{cone} = \frac{2}{3} \pi r^3 \):
- \( 253 \pi = \frac{2}{3} \pi r^3 \)
- \( r^3 = 253 \cdot \frac{3}{2} = 379.5 \)
Volume of the sphere \( V_{sphere} = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 \):
- \( V_{sphere} = \frac{4}{3} \pi \cdot 379.5 \)
- \( V_{sphere} = \frac{4 \cdot 379.5}{3} \pi \)
- \( V_{sphere} = 506 \pi \)
**Answer**: \( 503 \pi \, \text{cm}^3 \)
### Volume Remaining After Carving a Cone from a Cylinder
Given:
- Volume of cylinder before removing the cone = 54 in³
Since the cone and the cylinder share the same radius and height:
- Volume of the cone \( V_{cone} = \frac{1}{3} V_{cylinder} = \frac{1}{3} \cdot 54 = 18 \, \text{in}^3 \)
- Volume remaining = \( V_{cylinder} - V_{cone} = 54 - 18 \)
**Answer**: \( 36 \, \text{in}^3 \)
### Volume of a Hemisphere & Cone Object
Given:
- Volume of the cone \( V_{cone} = 12 \, \text{m}^3 \)
- Height of the cone = diameter of the hemisphere
Let \( r \) be the radius:
- Height of the cone \( h = 2r \)
- Volume of a cone \( V_{cone} = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 (2r) = \frac{2}{3} \pi r^3 \)
- \( 12 = \frac{2}{3} \pi r^3 \)
- \( r^3 = \frac{12 \cdot 3}{2 \pi} = \frac{18}{\pi} \)
Volume of the hemisphere:
- \( V_{hemisphere} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 = \frac{2}{3} \pi r^3 \)
Since the volume of the cone is also \( \frac{2}{3} \pi r^3 \), the total volume is:
- \( 12 + 12 = 24 \, \text{m}^3 \)
**Answer**: \( 24 \, \text{m}^3 \)
