Question:

The volume of a sphere is 38808 cm3 . What is its surface area (in cm2 )?

(Take π = 22/7)

Options:

6655

5544

5040

5599

Correct Answer:

5544

Explanation:

We know that,

Volume of sphere = \(\frac{4}{3}\)πr3

Surface Area of sphere = 4πr2

We have,

Volume of sphere = 38808 cm3

According to the question,

\(\frac{4}{3}\)πr3 = 38808

\(\frac{4}{3}\) × \(\frac{22}{7}\)× r3 = 38808

r3 = 9261

r = 21cm

Now, the Surface Area of the sphere = 4×\(\frac{22}{7}\)×21×21

= 4 × 66 × 21 = 5544 cm2
