Q. What is the volume of a hemisphere with a radius of 26.7m, rounded to the nearest tenth of a cubic meter?
Calculate Full Sphere Volume: The formula for the volume of a sphere is (34)πr3. Since we want the volume of a hemisphere, we'll take half of that.
Calculate Volume of Full Sphere: First, calculate the volume of a full sphere with radius 26.7m: (34)π(26.7)3.
Divide by 2: Now, do the math: (34)π(26.7)3=(34)π(19044.743)≈252,709.9 cubic meters for the full sphere.
Round to Nearest Tenth: Since we need the volume of a hemisphere, divide the volume of the sphere by 2: 252,709.9/2≈126,354.95 cubic meters.
Round to Nearest Tenth: Since we need the volume of a hemisphere, divide the volume of the sphere by 2: 252,709.9/2≈126,354.95 cubic meters.Round the result to the nearest tenth: 126,354.95≈126,354.9 cubic meters.
