A 2.5 gallon bucket is filled with paintball pellets. Each pellet is a sphere with a radius of 8.5 mm.
Calculate the volume of a single paintball pellet in cubic inches (in3).
25.4 mm = 1 inch
(This answer will be used in the next question)
0.392 in3
0.16 in3
1.26 in3
0.0040 in3
Using the single pellet volume (from Q7):
Estimate the total number of paintball pellets that a 2.5 gallon bucket can hold. (Only 70% of the volume is filled with the spherical pellets).
1 gallon = 231 cubic inches
HINT: 2.5 gallons *IS* the volume of the bucket.
2575 pellets
1208 pellets
101,214 pellets
322 pellets
Fun Plex owner needs a new ball pit that measures 14 feet long by 14 feet wide by 2 feet deep. Calculate the volume of the ball pit in cubic inches.
1 foot = 12 inches
4500 cubic feet
677,376 cubic feet
392 cubic feet
5400 cubic feet
Fun Plex owner needs to purchase enough balls to fill the pit. The radius of each ball is 2 inches. Calculate the approximate volume of each ball in cubic feet.
1 foot = 12 inches
You will use this answer for the next question
HINT: Do Unit Conversion BEFORE calculating the Volume.
0.00984 cubic FEET
0.148 cubic FEET
0.037 cubic FEET
0.019 cubic FEET
