The volume of a sphere with radius $r$ is given by the formula $V(r) = frac4 pi3 r^3$.



a) If $a$ is a given fixed value for $r$, write the formula for the linearization of the volume function $V(r)$ at $a$.



b) Use this linearization to calculate the thickness $Delta r$ (in $cm$) of a layer of paint on the surface of a spherical ball with radius $r=52cm$ if the total volume of paint used is $340cm^3$.



The first part is easy to calculate, but I don't know exactly how to get the second part?

          The volume $Delta V$ of paint is approximatively given by
          $$Delta V=V(a+Delta r)-V(a)doteq V'(a)>Delta r=4pi a^2>Delta r .tag1$$
          In your problem the unknown is the thickness $Delta r$ of the paint layer. From $(1)$ we immediately get
          $$Delta rdoteqDelta Vover 4pi>a^2 .$$
