a ball is placed in a cylindrical can, being tangent to the sides and the bases. the volume of the can is 2008 cm³. find the surface area of the ball.
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "That can must be a cube.
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Volume = side^3
\n" ); document.write( "s^3 = 2008
\n" ); document.write( "s = 12.62 cm
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "s is also the diameter of the ball.
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "radius = s/2 = 6.31 cm
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Surface area of 4(pi)r^2 = 500.34 cm^2
