Question 187978
Gerry wants to inflate an exercise ball. The ball has a radius of 15 inches. If a pump can push 5 cubic inches of air everysecond, how many seconds will it take to inflate the ball?
-----------------------------
The volume of a sphere of radius r is
{{{V = 4*pi*r^3/3}}}
{{{V = 4*pi*3375/3}}}
V = 4500*pi cubic inches
t = 4500pi/5 = 900*pi seconds
t = ~ 2827.43 seconds
