how many complete unit cubes can be put in a sphere of diameter 6 cm
\n" ); document.write( "What units? cm?
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "The volume of the sphere is
\n" ); document.write( "\"V+=+4%2Api%2Ar%5E3%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"V+=+4%2Api%2A27%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "V = 36 pi cc = ~113 cc
\n" ); document.write( "But the cubes don't conform to the shape of the sphere, making this a difficult problem. I think it's beyond the scope of almost all classes.
\n" ); document.write( "Even working in 2 dimensions, putting 1 cm squares inside a 6 cm dia circle is complicated.
