Question:

The surface area of a spherical balloon is 400 π cm2 . What is the volume of air in it?

Options:

$\frac{4000}{3}π$ cm2

$\frac{1000}{3}π$ cm2

$\frac{3000}{3}π$ cm2

$\frac{400}{3}π$ cm2

Correct Answer:

$\frac{4000}{3}π$ cm2

Explanation:

We know that,

Total surface area of sphere = 4πr2

Volume of sphere = \(\frac{4}{3}\)πr3

We have,

The total surface area of a sphere = 400π cm2

According to the question,

Total surface area of sphere = 4πr2 = 400π 

= r2 = 100

= r = 10 cm

Now, Volume of sphere = \(\frac{4}{3}\) × 103 × π = \(\frac{4000}{3}\)π
