Question 129

A solid sphere and a hemisphere have the same radius. Then the ratio of their respective total surface areas is

Solution

Let the common radius be "r" units

area of sphere = 4$$\pi r^2$$

area of hemi-sphere = 2$$\pi r^2$$ + $$\pi r^2$$ = 3$$\pi r^2$$

$$\frac{\text{Area of Sphere}}{\text{Area of Hemisphere}}$$ = $$\frac{4\pi r^2}{ 3\pi r^2}$$

= $$\frac{4}{3}$$
