The circumference of the Spaceship Earth at Epcot Center is 518.1 feet. Determine Spaceship Earth's approximate
volume.
Step 1: You will need.to find the radius using the formula: C= 2πr
Answers
Step 2: You will need to substitute your answer into the____formula for a____
A.) square feet
B.) 2,350,878.75
C.) cylinder
D.) 582.249.550
E.) 1036
F.) cubic.feet
G.) 18.807,030
H.) area
I.) feet
J.) sphere
Step 1:
C = 2πr
518.1 = 2πr
r = 518.1 / (2π)
r ≈ 82.3 feet
Step 2:
The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height. In this case, the height of Spaceship Earth is actually approximately equal to the radius, so the height is also 82.3 feet.
V = π(82.3)^2(82.3)
V ≈ 539,433 cubic feet
Therefore, Spaceship Earth's approximate volume is approximately 539,433 cubic feet.
