Enter the mass of the sphere and its radius into the calculator to determine the density of that sphere.

Density of Sphere Formula

The following equation is used to calculate the density of a sphere. 

D = m / (4/3*pi*r^3)
  • Where D is the density
  • m is the total mass
  • r is the radius

To calculate the density of a sphere, first, calculate the volume, then divide the mass by the calculated volume.

Density of Sphere Definition

The density of a sphere is defined as the total mass per unit of volume of a spherical object.
