How to Calculate Volume of a Hemisphere

Calculating the volume of a hemisphere is straightforward when you understand the formula and have the correct measurements.

Volume Formula

V = (2/3) × π × r³

Parameter Explanation

Radius (r)

  • • Distance from center to any point on surface
  • • Same radius as the original sphere
  • • Must be positive number
  • • Units: cm, m, mm, in, ft

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a hemisphere and a sphere?

A hemisphere is half of a sphere, created by cutting a sphere along a plane that passes through its center.

How does hemisphere volume relate to sphere volume?

Hemisphere volume is exactly half of the sphere volume with the same radius.

What units should I use?

You can use any consistent unit system (metric or imperial). The result will be in the same unit cubed.

Tips & Notes

  • • Hemisphere volume is half of sphere volume
  • • Hemisphere volume is (2/3)πr³
  • • A hemisphere has one flat circular face
  • • All points on curved surface equidistant from center
