The Oriental Pearl Tower in Shanghai, China, is a 468-meter high tower with 11 spheres along the tower. Two spheres are larger than the rest and house meeting areas, an observation deck, and a revolving restaurant. The lower of the two larger spheres has a radius of 25 meters, and the higher sphere has a radius of 22.5 meters. What is the approximate total volume of the two largest spheres on the Oriental Pearl Tower?

Respuesta :

The approximate total volume of the two largest spheres on the Oriental Pearl Tower 113105.45 m³.

How to find the volume of a sphere

The volume of the sphere is calculated as follows:

volume = 4 / 3 πr³

where

  • r = radius

The lower two larger spheres in the tower has a radius of 25 meters and 22.5 meters. Therefore, the total volume of the two largest sphere is as follows:

volume of lower sphere = 4 / 3 × 3.14 × 25³

volume of lower sphere = 196250 / 3

volume of lower sphere = 65416.6666667

volume of lower sphere = 65416.7 m³

volume of higher sphere = 4 / 3 × 3.14 × 22.5³

volume of higher sphere = 143066.25 / 3

volume of higher sphere = 47688.75

volume of higher sphere = 47688.8 m³

The approximate total volume = 65416.7 + 47688.8  = 113105.45 m³
