Sphere Volume Calculator solves sphere volume or radius with 4/3 × π × radius³.

The result is volume in mm³ or radius in mm, according to the selected unknown. Volume equals 4/3 × π × radius³. Processing runs in the browser.

  • Check a geometry calculation for a sphere.
  • Recover a sphere's radius from its known volume.
  • Compare how doubling the radius increases the volume eightfold.

Instructions

  1. Choose the unknown value, then enter the known radius or volume.
  2. Choose volume or radius as the unknown.
  3. Enter radius in mm when solving volume. Enter volume in mm³ when solving radius.
  4. For radius 3 mm, check that the volume is approximately 113.097 mm³.

Example

Input: radius = 3 mm

Settings: Sphere Volume Calculator: Unknown: volume; length unit: millimetres.

Result: 113.09733552923255 mm³, approximately 113.097 mm³.

Sphere Volume Calculator: The exact expression is 36π mm³. The decimal display uses floating-point arithmetic.

Limits

  • Sphere Volume Calculator: The displayed volume unit is mm³.
  • Sphere Volume Calculator: Doubling radius increases volume eightfold.
  • Sphere Volume Calculator: It assumes a perfect sphere.
