It depends on many things, but if you're going by the equatorial radius as the same size, the balloon should be about 10-15% larger. Note that you can mesure the volume of irregular shapes, thanks to my good friend Archemedes ("Eurika!"). Take a mesuring container large enough to easily hold the balloon and fill it about 2/3 full. Note the volume the water occupies by the water level. Now, immerse the balloon in the water and mesure the volume by the water level again. the difference is the volume of the balloon.

volume of the cube - volume of the sphere = volume enclosed between the cube and sphere


What is the volume of a bubble?

It depends on the size of the balloon. As the diameter of the balloon increases, its volume is cubed, therefore the volume quickly increases with the size of the balloon.


How do you increase the surface area withour increasing the volume?

The smallest surface area for a given volume is a sphere. A spherical object such as a balloon represents the minimum energy required to maintain the volume of the material within. A balloon filled with water if stretched will increase the surface area of the balloon without altering the volume as water is non-compressible. Any alternative shape that encloses the same volume will have a larger surface area than a sphere. A perfect example is a drop of liquid in a zero gravity environment which will vibrate when intially created but will gradually slow to a stop and take the form of a perfect sphere.

Relation between volume radius and surface of sphere?

Let the radius of the sphere be r. surface area of the sphere = 4 * pi * r^2 volume = (4 * pi * r^3)/3


How does one find the percent uncertainty in the volume of a sphere whose radius is r equals 1point56 plus or minus 0point05 meters?

-- Find the volume of a sphere with radius = 1.56 -- Find the volume of a sphere with radius = 1.61 -- The uncertainty is the difference between the bigger result and the smaller one. -- For the percent uncertainty, find out what percent that difference is of the (r = 1.56) volume. (Divide the difference of the two volumes by the volume you get with r=1.56 . Multiply the result of the division by 100, and you have the percent of uncertainty.) (Just knocking it out quickly on our calculator, we get about 9.93% uncertainty. This may or may not be correct, and you should not depend on it. But if you get the same answer, then we're probably both right.) Here's an important tool that you'll need to do this job: Volume of a sphere = 4/3 (pi) (radius)3


What is the difference between spherical and round?

round is used to described the shape and or form like of the circle,sphere,cylinder,cone, etc. Spherical is the specific description of a sphere. A sphere is a 3D object having volume. Marble is a sphere Coin is a cylinder marble and coin are circle only if it is already a figure(drawing).

What is the difference between percentage by weight and volume?

They are different in non-homogeneous mixtures. Here's an example. If you put a few drops of water in a balloon, the contents are 99.9% (or so) water by weight and 99.9% (or so) air by volume.
