How will you measure the diameter of a ball?

Dear Student
Kindly find the answer of your asked query.

The diameter of the sphere is double of the radius.IF we know the volume of the ball then we can calculate the diameter or if we know the surface area of the ball then we can determine the diameter of the ball.Volume =43πr3where r is the radiussurface area =4πr2diameter will be 2r

Hope this information will clear your doubt about measurement.
If you have any doubt do ask on the forum, our experts will help you out.

Diameter can be defined as a distance that is measured across a Circle through its mid Point or its center. Diameter of a ball is length of line passing through the center and touches two points on its surface. Diameter is the longest Chord. Now we will understand how to measure Diameter of a ball.

Shape of ball is similar to Sphere. Diameter is always double of a radius. Mathematically it can be written as:
Diameter = 2R, here value of ‘R’ represents ball.

Let’s understand some steps to find diameter of ball.
Step 1: We need radius value to find diameter of ball. Suppose we are given radius of ball as 6 inch, and we have to find diameter of ball.

Step 2: Formula to find the diameter of a ball is given as:
Diameter = 2R, given radius = 6 inch.
Put value of radius in given formula to find diameter of ball. So we can write it as:
Diameter = 2 * 6,
Diameter = 12 inch.
After solving we get diameter of a ball as 12 inch. According to definition it is twice the radius of ball. In this way we can find diameter of ball.

For example: If radius of ball is 4.9 inch, then diameter of ball can be calculated as shown below.
Solution: Given radius = 4.9 inch.
Diameter = 2R, put value of radius in given formula. On putting value we get:
Diameter = 2 * 4.9,
Diameter = 9.8 inch.
So we get diameter of ball equals to 9.8 inch.
