Q. What is the volume of a hemisphere with a radius of 4.3cm, rounded to the nearest tenth of a cubic centimeter?Answer: cm3
Recall Sphere Volume Formula: Recall the formula for the volume of a sphere, which is V=34πr3. Since we are looking for the volume of a hemisphere, we will need to divide the volume of a sphere by 2. The formula for the volume of a hemisphere is therefore V=21(34πr3).
Substitute Radius: Substitute the given radius of 4.3cm into the formula for the volume of a hemisphere. V=(21)(34)π(4.3)3.
Calculate Volume: Calculate the volume using the substituted values. V=(21)(34)π(4.3)3=(21)(34)π(79.507)≈(21)(34)(3.14159)(79.507).
Perform Multiplication: Perform the multiplication. V≈(21)(4.18879)(79.507)≈(2.094395)(79.507)≈166.388 cubic centimeters before rounding.
Round Result: Round the result to the nearest tenth of a cubic centimeter. V≈166.4cm3.
