To calculate, enter the radius of the sphere, which is its diameter divided by 2.
Sphere Surface area Calculation
Surface area, the entire external surface area making up round ball, is calculated with the formula:
Area = 4 π r2
where r is the radius, and π (pi) is approximately 3.14.
Sphere Volume Calculation
Volume is how much liquid the sphere can hold. The formula to calcuate the volume of a sphere is:
where r is the radius, and π (pi) is approximately 3.14
The result of calculating the sphere's volume is in cubic inches (or centimeters). Using the volume, the liquid capacity of the sphere is calculated in several common metrics (cups, ounces, milliliters, etc.)
