Read each question carefully and calculate the volume of each sphere. Use \( \pi \approx 3.14 \) and round your answers to two decimal places.

Formula for the volume of a sphere: \( V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 \)


1. A sphere has a radius of 3 cm. What is its volume?

r=3cm

2. Find the volume of a sphere with a diameter of 10 meters.

d=10m

3. If the radius of a sphere is 6 inches, its volume is approximately   cubic inches.

4. A sphere with a diameter of 14 ft has a radius of   ft.

5. Which of the following is the correct formula for the volume of a sphere?

a

\( V = \pi r^2 h \)

b

\( V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h \)

c

\( V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 \)

d

\( V = 2 \pi r h \)
