  2. Volume of an n-ball - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_of_an_n-ball

    The volume of the n-ball () can be computed by integrating the volume element in spherical coordinates. The spherical coordinate system has a radial coordinate r and angular coordinates φ 1 , …, φ n − 1 , where the domain of each φ except φ n − 1 is [0, π ) , and the domain of φ n − 1 is [0, 2 π ) .

    For most practical purposes, the volume inside a sphere inscribed in a cube can be approximated as 52.4% of the volume of the cube, since V = ⁠ π / 6 ⁠ d 3, where d is the diameter of the sphere and also the length of a side of the cube and ⁠ π / 6 ⁠ ≈ 0.5236.
