Ball Volume Calculator

Calculate the volume of a sphere (ball) using its radius measurement.

Formula

$$V = \frac{4}{3} \cdot \pi \cdot r^3$$

Where r is the radius of the ball.

Example

For a ball with a radius of 4.2 inches:

  1. Apply the formula: V = (4/3) Γ— Ο€ Γ— 4.2Β³
  2. Calculate the cube: 4.2Β³ = 74.088
  3. Multiply by Ο€: 74.088 Γ— 3.14159 = 232.83
  4. Multiply by 4/3: 232.83 Γ— (4/3) = 310.28 inΒ³

The volume of a ball with a 4.2-inch radius is approximately 310.28 cubic inches.

Frequently Asked Questions

This calculator determines the volume of a spherical ball using the radius measurement. It is useful for calculating volumes of sports balls, spherical tanks, or any round object.

The calculator uses the formula V = (4/3) Γ— Ο€ Γ— rΒ³, where V is volume and r is the radius. It converts between inches and centimeters as needed.

Use this calculator when you need to find the volume of any spherical object, such as sports balls, bubble volumes, or spherical containers.

The calculator assumes a perfect sphere. Real-world objects may have slight irregularities that affect the actual volume.
