Step-by-Step Mathematical Breakdown:

1. Given Volume \( V = 523.5988\text{ cm}^3 \)

2. Formula: \( d = \sqrt[3]{\frac{6V}{\pi}} \)

3. Multiply Volume by 6: \( 6 \times 523.5988 = 3,141.5928 \)

4. Divide by π: \( \frac{3141.5928}{\pi} \approx 1,000 \)

5. Cube Root: \( d = \sqrt[3]{1000} = \mathbf{10.0000\text{ cm}} \) (Radius \( r = 5.0000\text{ cm} \))

When calculating volume in terms of diameter, the formula is:

V = ⅙ π d³ ⇔ d = ³√(&frac{6V}{π})

By multiplying both sides by 6 and dividing by π, we isolate \(d^3 = \frac{6V}{\pi}\). Taking the cube root gives diameter \(d\).

How do you find the diameter of a sphere from its volume?

Rearrange the volume formula: d = ∛((6 × V) / π). Multiply the volume by 6, divide by π, and take the cube root.

What is the relationship between diameter and radius?

The diameter is exactly twice the length of the radius: d = 2 × r, or r = d / 2.

How do you calculate diameter from surface area?

Rearrange A = πd² to solve for diameter: d = √(A / π). Divide surface area by π and take the square root.
