Your diameter is double the radius. So the diameter is 6
The radius is half the diameter.
Canister holds 3 tennis balls the diameter of the balls is the same as the diameter of the cylinder 6 cm how much space in the cylinder is not taken? Since 3 tennis balls fit in the cylinder, the height of the cylinder is 3 * the diameter of a tennis ball Volume of Sphere = 4/3 * Π radius^3 Volume of Cylinder = height * Π radius^2 The diameter of a tennis ball is 6 cm The radius is 3 cm. Volume of 3 balls = 3* 4/3 * Π * radius^3 Volume of 3 balls = 3* 4/3 * Π * 3^3 Height of Cylinder = 3 * 6 cm = 18 cm Volume of cylinder = 18 * Π * 3^2 Space in the cylinder is not taken = Volume of cylinder - Volume of 3 balls Do the math, you should get 169.6 cc for the space in the cylinder is not taken.
The radius of the cylinder would be 0.64cm ! The radius is half the diameter - length has nothing to do with the question !
The volume of the cylinder will be different, depending on which of the two numbers is the diameter, and which the radius.
