V = (4/3) pi r^3

r^3 = V / (4pi/3)

r^3 = 3V / 4pi

r = (3V/4Pi)^(1/3)

Answer:

Option C is correct


\sqrt[3]{(3V)/(4 \pi)} units

Explanation:

Volume of a sphere(V) is given by:


V = (4)/(3) \pi r^3 .....[1]

where,


3V = 4 \pi r^3r is the radius of the sphere.

We have to find the radius r:

Multiply both sides by 3 both sides in [1] we have;


3V = 4 \pi r^3

Divide both sides by
4\pi we have;


(3V)/(4 \pi) = r^3

Taking cube root both sides we have;


\sqrt[3]{(3V)/(4 \pi)} = r

or


r = \sqrt[3]{(3V)/(4 \pi)} units

Therefore, the radius of the sphere is,
\sqrt[3]{(3V)/(4 \pi)} units
