When you cut a sphere in half by passing a plane through its center, the result is a hemisphere.12 ftPart AWrite a formula for the volume V of a hemisphere. Explain how you found it.aEnter the correct answers in the boxes.

Respuesta :

The formula for the volume of a sphere is

[tex]V=\frac{4\pi}{3}r^3[/tex]

where r represents the radius of the sphere.

A hemisphere is half of a sphere, therefore, it has half the volume of a sphere. A formula for the volume of a hemisphere is half the volume of a sphere, which is

[tex]\frac{V}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\times\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3=\frac{2}{3}\pi r^3[/tex]

The volume of a hemisphere is

[tex]V=\frac{2}{3}\pi r^3[/tex]
