Question:-
The diameter of the moon is approximately one forth of the diameter of the earth. what fraction of the volume of the earth is the volume of the moon ?
Answer:-
Let the diameter of the earth be d
We know that,
Diameter/2 = radius
So,
d/2 = Radius of earth
Given that:
Diameter of the moon = 1/4 of earth's diameter
⟹ Diameter of the moon = d/4
⟹ Radius of the moon = (d/4)/2 = d/4 * 1/2 = d/8
We know,
Earth is in the shape of a sphere.
- Volume of a sphere = 4/3 * πr³ (r is the radius of the sphere)
Let us assume that the volume of the earth is x times the volume of moon.
⟹ 4/3 * π * (d/2)³ = x * 4/3 * π * (d/8)³
(4/3 , π are cancelled out both sides).
⟹ d³/8 = x * d³/512
⟹ d³/8 * 512/d³ = x
⟹ 64 = x
∴ The volume of earth is 64 times the volume of moon.
Let d 1 and d 2 be the diameters of the moon and the earth respectively.
Then, d 1
=
⇒
We know that volume of sphere =
