3 Objectives Learn and apply the formula for the volume of a sphere.
Learn and apply the formula for the surface area of a sphere.

4 Vocabulary sphere center of a sphere radius of a sphere hemisphere
great circle

5 A sphere is the locus of points in space that are a fixed distance from a given point called the center of a sphere. A radius of a sphere connects the center of the sphere to any point on the sphere. A hemisphere is half of a sphere. A great circle divides a sphere into two hemispheres

6 The figure shows a hemisphere and a cylinder with a cone removed from its interior. The cross sections have the same area at every level, so the volumes are equal by Cavalieri’s Principle. You will prove that the cross sections have equal areas in Exercise 39. The height of the hemisphere is equal to the radius.

7 V(hemisphere) = V(cylinder) – V(cone)
The volume of a sphere with radius r is twice the volume of the hemisphere, or

13 Example 2: Sports Application
A sporting goods store sells exercise balls in two sizes, standard (22-in. diameter) and jumbo (34-in. diameter). How many times as great is the volume of a jumbo ball as the volume of a standard ball? jumbo ball: standard ball: A jumbo ball is about 3.7 times as great in volume as a standard ball.

14 Check It Out! Example 2 A hummingbird eyeball has a diameter of approximately 0.6 cm. How many times as great is the volume of a human eyeball as the volume of a hummingbird eyeball? hummingbird: human: The human eyeball is about 72.3 times as great in volume as a hummingbird eyeball.

15 In the figure, the vertex of the pyramid is at the center of the sphere. The height of the pyramid is approximately the radius r of the sphere. Suppose the entire sphere is filled with n pyramids that each have base area B and height r.

16 4r2 ≈ nB If the pyramids fill the sphere, the total area of the bases is approximately equal to the surface area of the sphere S, so 4r2 ≈ S. As the number of pyramids increases, the approximation gets closer to the actual surface area.
