Answer:

Approximately 33,510.7 cubic millimeters.

Explanation:

The volume of a sphere can be calculated using the formula: V = 4/3 * π * r^3, where r is the radius of the sphere.

The diameter of the table tennis ball is 40 mm, so the radius is r = 40/2 = 20 mm.

To convert millimeters to cubic millimeters we have to cube the value of radius, so in this case, 20mm20mm20mm.

So, the volume of the table tennis ball in cubic millimeters is:

V = 4/3 * π * 20^3 = 4/3 * π * 8000 = approximately 33,510.7 cubic millimeters.
