The volume of the Sun is 1.412 x 1018 km3. And the volume of the Earth is 1.083 x 1012 km3. So if you divide the volume of the Sun by the volume of the Earth, you get 1,300,000.28-May-2010
How do you find the volume of the sun?
1 Answer
- Radius of the Sun: 695,700 km.
- Radius of the Earth: 6378 km.
- Volume of a sphere = 4/3πr3
- Volume of the Sun Vs = (4 x 3.14 x (695, 700)3)/3.
- VS = 1.4097 × 1018 km3
- Volume of the Earth VE = (4 x 3.14 x (6378)3)/3.
- VE = 1.0862 × 1012 km3
- VS/VE = (1.4097 x 1018)/(1.0862 x 1012) = 1.297 x 106 (dimensionless)
What is the volume ratio of the sun?
Bulk parameters
| Sun | Ratio (Sun/Earth) | |

What is the volume formula?
Whereas the basic formula for the area of a rectangular shape is length × width, the basic formula for volume is length × width × height.
How did we calculate the size of the sun?
Just project the light of the sun from a small mirror onto a darkened wall. Then measure the diameter of the projected image (d) and the distance between the wall in the mirror (l). These are in the same ratio as the actual diameter of the sun (D) to the true distance to the sun (L).
How do you calculate volume of a planet?
Since planets are nearly perfect spheres, a planet's volume can be found from volume = (p/6) × diameter3.
What is the volume of the sun in m3?
Mass and volume The total volume of the sun is 1.4 x 1027cubic meters. About 1.3 million Earths could fit inside the sun.
What does the sun weigh?
1.989 × 10^30 kg Sun/Mass
How do you calculate the volume of a container?
Length x Width x Height = CBM This is the formula used to measure your cargo volume in CBM (m³). Say, you have a carton that is 2 metres long, 2 metres wide and 2 metres high. Then, its volume is 2 x 2 x 2 = 8 m³.
