Answer:

diameter = 29 m

Explanation:

Given that:

volume of a sphere = 4,000π m3.

WE know that:

volume of a sphere = 4/3 πr^3

So equating both equations:

4/3 πr^3 = 4,000π m3.

Multiplying both sides by 3/4

πr^3 = 3/4*4,000π m3.

πr^3 = 3/4*4,000π m3.

πr^3 = 3,000π m3.

Dividing both sides by π

r^3 = 3,000 m3.

Taking cube root on both sides

r = 14.38 m

For finding diameter:

diameter = r * 2

diameter = 28.768 m

By rounding off:

diameter = 29 m

i hope it will help you!
