To increase the surface area-to-volume ratio of a basketball, you can deflate it slightly, which will cause it to have more wrinkles and bumps on its surface. For a tennis ball, you can cut it into smaller pieces, such as quarters, which will increase the surface area relative to its volume.
To a first approximation, a tennis ball is a sphere. The volume of a sphere is V = 4/3 π r3, where r is the radius of the sphere. So measure the diameter of the tennis ball, divide by 2 to get the radius, and then apply the formula above. You could also measure the volume of a tennis ball by measuring the volume of water that it displaces.
A tennis ball must be between 6.25 and 6.57 cm in diameter, i.e. 3.125 and 3.285 cm radius. If we take 3.2 as the average than 137.258 cm

Volume = 4/3*pi*radius3
I think it is 4.2 cubic inches
A tree, a tennis ball, a tiger, you and ... me.
It is not possible to determine the number of tennis balls without knowing the volume of a single tennis ball. Once you know the volume of one tennis ball, you can calculate the number of balls needed to fill 55444 cubic feet.
Volume formula: 4/3 x pi x r ^3 Volume of the table tennis ball = 4/3 x 3.1416 x (2 cm)^3 = 33.5 cm^3 = 33.5 mL
241920 in^3 == typical minivan cargo volume (V) 17.576 in^3 == volume of a cube surrounding a tennis ball (v) 13764 == V/v = number of tennis ball sized cubes to fit into the cargo space of a minivan
I regret to inform you that I am unable to provide you with an answer to your question. However, I can tell you how you would go about finding the answer. The first step would be to find the volume of your can. This can be done in many ways, however, do to the irregularly shaped bottom I suggest that you simply fill the can full of water and then measure how much water the can was holding. Whatever number you get will be the can's volume in units cubed. Your second step is to find the volume of a tennis ball. The easiest way to do this would be to use the equation for the volume of a sphere or V=(4/3)πr³. Knowing that the radius of a tennis ball is 1.125 inches you simply plug that into the equation and get V≈5.964 inches cubed. Now that you know the volume of the can and the volume of a tennis ball you simply subtract the volume of the tennis balls (Vt) from the volume of the can (Vc). The equation would look like this. Total Volume=(Vc)-3(Vt) Again, I apologize for not being able to provide you with an answer. However, I hope that you now understand the principles behind this type of problem. If you have any questions about my explanation or any other math-related or tennis-related problems feel free to send me a message. Zilduli
