The circumference of the Spaceship Earth at Epcot Center is 518.1 feet. Determine Spaceship Earth's approximate volume.
To find the volume of Spaceship Earth, we first need to determine its radius. The formula for circumference is C = 2 * π * r, where r is the radius.
So, 518.1 = 2 * π * r
Dividing both sides by 2π:
r = 518.1 / (2 * π) = 82.4 feet (approximate)
Now, we can calculate the volume of a sphere using the formula V = (4/3) * π * r^3:
V = (4/3) * π * (82.4)^3
V ≈ 4/3 * 3.14159 * 564,331.104
V ≈ 753,324.641 cubic feet
Therefore, the approximate volume of Spaceship Earth at Epcot Center is 753,324.641 cubic feet.
