The volume of a sphere formula is V=43πr3\displaystyle {V}=\frac{{4}}{{3}}\pi{r}^{{3}}. Where r is the radius. Units must be consistent.
  1. If the units for radius are kilometers, what are the units for the volume?
  2. Solve this formula for r.
  3. The Moon has a radius of about 1,738 km. What is the volume of the Moon (in scientific notation, using 3 decimal places in the mantissa)?   km^3.
  4. The volume of the Earth is about 1.1×1012  km3\displaystyle {1.1}\times{10}^{{12}}\ \text{ km}^{{3}}. What is the radius of the Earth? (assume the Earth is a perfect sphere, which it isn't) (use at least 1 decimal place).   km.
  5. The Earth's radius is   times the Moon's radius. (use at least 1 decimal place)
  6. The Earth's volume is   times the Moon's volume.
