Question
What is the volume of the sphere in the figure shown below?

Transcribed Image Text:The image displays a set of four multiple-choice options, each accompanied by a circular button for selection. These options represent different measurements in cubic meters (m³):
1. \( \bigcirc \) 11.2 m³
2. \( \bigcirc \) 2.9 m³
3. \( \bigcirc \) 27.6 m³
4. \( \bigcirc \) 9.2 m³
There are no graphs or diagrams associated with this text, only the listed numerical options.
![**Problem Statement:**
What is the volume of the sphere in the figure shown below?
**Diagram Explanation:**
The image shows a green sphere with a dotted line across its diameter, which is labeled as 2.6 meters.
To find the volume of the sphere, use the formula for the volume of a sphere:
\[ V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 \]
Where \( r \) is the radius of the sphere. In this case, the diameter is given as 2.6 meters, so the radius \( r \) is half of that:
\[ r = \frac{2.6}{2} = 1.3 \text{ meters} \]
Thus, the volume \( V \) can be calculated as:
\[ V = \frac{4}{3} \pi (1.3)^3 \]](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F7681d0fd-5f1a-4eb4-9f9d-4867c31b6ba2%2F1e863cf1-1803-4b62-b1ec-8da43b3a3943%2Fyihbtlg_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
