Volume of a Spherical Sector

To begin with, let's try to understand what a spherical sector is. A spherical sector – is a part of a sphere or ball, bounded by the curved surface of the spherical segment and the conical surface. The apex in this case will be the center of the sphere, and the base of the segment is the very conical surface. To make it clearer, look at the diagram.

If you need to calculate the volume of a spherical sector, our online calculator is happy to help you with this, with just a couple of clicks of the computer mouse, and therefore, in a few seconds you will get the answer you need. This, in turn, will save you time and eliminate the chance of making a mistake.
Our online calculator calculates the volume of a spherical sector using the formula:

Where h – is the height of the segment, and r- the radius of the sphere.


Enter the radius of the sphere R
Enter the height h
