You have a sphere and a cylindar:
For a sphere the volume is highlight%28V=%284%2F3%29%2Api%2Ar%5E3%29
For a cylindar the volume is highlight%28V=pi%2Ar%5E2%2Ah%29
d=40
pi=3.14
h=100
r=d/2=40/2=20
Units for volume: cm^3
V=%284%2F3%29%283.14%29%2820%29%5E3%2B%283.14%29%2A%2820%29%5E2%2A%28100%29
V=33493.33%2B125600
V=159093.33cm%5E3
Happy Calculating!!!
