-- Measure the diameter of the ball (the fattest dimension).
-- Take the "cube" of that number. (itself x itself x itself)
-- Multiply the result by 0.5236
The answer is the volume of the ball in cubic-(same unit as the diameter of the ball).
Note: Where the 0.5236 came from ... it's (4/3 pi) x (1/2)3

a cicel a or as known as a ball a ball is round
actually a foot ball is not round it is a big sphere
Of course not. Imagine putting that 1-foot wide ball of solid iron in a box that is exactly 1 foot square. Won't there be a lot of empty space all around the ball, except at the points where the ball touches the flat wall of the container? The empty space proves the volume of the ball (sphere) is less than the volume of the cube. If the volume is less, and if both are made of the same thing, the sphere will weigh less.
