Question 1158311: The volume of a large sphere is twice the volume of a small sphere. By what factor do you need to multiply the radius of the small sphere to equal the radius of the large sphere? Answer by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The volume of a large sphere is twice the volume of a small sphere.
By what factor do you need to multiply the radius of the small sphere to equal the radius of the large sphere?
:
a = the required factor = 2()
divide both sides by
divide both sides by r^3
a^3 = 2
a = (the cube root of 2)is the factor to multiply the radius to double the volume
