Diameter

Compute the volume of a sphere from its radius using the classic formula, four thirds times pi times the radius cubed. For a radius of 5 the volume is about 523.6 cubic units. This calculator also returns the surface area of the sphere, which is four times pi times the radius squared, and the diameter for reference. A sphere is a perfectly round three dimensional shape, and the formula applies to balls, planets, bubbles, ball bearings and storage tanks. If you only know the diameter, halve it to get the radius before entering. Enter the radius in any unit and the volume returns in that unit cubed while the surface area is in the unit squared. The high precision value of pi and full floating point math run locally in your browser, so nothing leaves your device, and you can copy the volume result with a single click whenever you need it.

How to use Sphere Volume Calculator

  1. Enter the radius of the sphere.
  2. Submit to calculate.
  3. Read the volume and surface area.

Frequently asked questions

How is the volume of a sphere found?

The volume is four thirds times pi times the radius cubed.

How is the surface area of a sphere found?

The surface area is four times pi times the radius squared.

Can I enter a diameter instead?

Enter the radius, which is half the diameter, so divide a known diameter by 2 first.
