Answer:
Difference = 480.9 in³
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Cylinder;
Height, h = 3¾ inches
Radius, r₁ = 6 inches
Sphere
Radius, r₂ = 6 inches
The volume of a cylinder is calculated as thus
Volume, V₁ = πr₁²h
The volume of a sphere is calculated as this
Volume, V₂ = 4/3 πr₂³
Calculating the volume of the cylinder
V₁ = πr₁²h becomes
V₁ = π * 6² * 3¾
V₁ = π * 36 * 3¾
V₁ = π * 36 * 15/4
V₁ = π * 540/4
V₁ = π * 135
V₁ = 135π in³
Calculating the volume of the sphere
V₂ = 4/3 πr₂³ becomes
V₂ = 4/3 * π * 6³
V₂ = 4/3 * π * 216
V₂ = 864/3 * π
V₂ = 288π in³
The difference between the volume is calculated as thus.
Difference = V₂ - V₁
Difference = 288π - 135π
Difference = 153π
Take π as 22/7
Difference = 153 * 22/7
Difference = 480.9 in³ (Approximated)
