Answer

$7.245g/cm^3$

Work Step by Step

Volume of a sphere $= \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3$ Circumference of a circle $= 2\pi r$ First we will find $r$ from the circumference, then find the volume of the sphere. $32.5mm = 2 \pi r$ $r = \dfrac{32.5mm}{2\pi}$ plug our $r$ into the volume equation: volume $= \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3$ volume $= \dfrac{4}{3}\pi (\dfrac{32.5mm}{2\pi})^3$ volume $= 579.69mm^3$ $579.69 mm^3*\dfrac{(1cm)^3}{(10mm)^3}$ $579.69 mm^3*\dfrac{1cm^3}{10^3 mm^3}$ $579.69 * 10^{-3}cm^3$ $0.57969 cm^3$ density $= \dfrac{4.20g}{0.57969 cm^3}$ $$7.245g/cm^3$$
