Chapter 10, Problem 15RQ
- 15 Create an Excel worksheet that will allow the user to type in the radius of a sphere and select from a drop-down menu the standard abbreviation for the units used.
| Standard Unit Abbreviations | ||||||
| Unit | meter | centimeter | millimeter | yard | foot | inch |
| Abbreviation | m | cm | mm | yd | ft | In |
The volume of the sphere should then be calculated and expressed by the following units: cubic meters, cubic centimeters, cubic millimeters, liters, gallons, cubic yards, cubic feet, and cubic inches. Your worksheet should appear similar to the sample shown below, although you will probably need additional information in the worksheet not shown here.
