How many gallons of water in a 2m diam sphere?

Answer 1

Diameter of sphere = 2 meters

Radius of sphere = 1 meter

1 meter = 39.37007874 inches

Volume of sphere = 4/3¶r3

Volume of sphere = 4/3 * pi * 39.370078743

Volume of sphere = 4/3 * pi * 61023.744094

Volume of sphere = 4/3 * 3.141592 * 61023.744094

Volume of sphere = 255,615.60834101 cu in

One gallon = 231 cu in

Answer 2

A sphere with a diameter of 2 meters has a volume of approximately 4.19 cubic meters. Since 1 cubic meter is equal to 264.172 gallons, the sphere would contain around 1,107 gallons of water.

Answer 3

In order to have an internal volume of 2 gallons, a sphere must have

a radius of 4.796 inches, diameter of 9.591 inches. (rounded)
