What has changed in converting the rectangular prism of the bar into the form of a sphere? Only the shape. Was any material added or subtracted? Was the material compressed when forming into a sphere? Was any bubble added when forming into a sphere? If the amount of material is the same before and after the change in shape form, then what does this mean?
