Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:Volume of the sphere model of earth is 321m³Step-by-step explanation:Parameter given:     diameter of the sphere = 8.5m       π = 3.14    Volume of a sphere is given as = 4/3 π r³       Where r is the radius of the sphere.   From given diameter, radius = 8.5/2 = 4.25mTherefore, imputing the parameters in the formular we have:                            ⇒4/3 × 3.14 × 4.25³                             ⇒1.333 ×3.14 × 76.766Volume of the sphere model = 321.31m³ ≅ 321m³
