The circumference of the Spaceship Earth at Epcot Center is 518.1 feet. Determine Spaceship Earth's approximate volume.(5 points)
To find the volume of Spaceship Earth, we first need to calculate its radius. The formula for the circumference of a circle is C = 2πr, where C is the circumference and r is the radius.
518.1 = 2πr
518.1 / (2π) = r
r ≈ 82.41 feet
Next, we use the formula for the volume of a sphere, V = 4/3πr^3, where V is the volume and r is the radius.
V = (4/3)π(82.41)^3
V ≈ 4/3 * π * 559,708.37
V ≈ 2,359,673.3 cubic feet
Therefore, the approximate volume of Spaceship Earth at Epcot Center is approximately 2,359,673.3 cubic feet.
