What is its surface area of the sphere if the volume of the sphere is \(179\frac{2}{3}\) m3?

A 154 m2

B 144 m2

C 221 m2

D 151 m2

E None of these

Solution

Correct Answer: Option A

Volume of the sphere is given by (4/3)π r3

Surface area of sphere is 4π r2

Given, volume of the sphere is \(179\frac{2}{3} = \frac{{539}}{3}\) m3

\(\begin{array}{l} \Rightarrow \left( {\frac{4}{3}} \right)\pi \;{r^3} = \left( {\frac{{539}}{3}} \right)\\ \Rightarrow r = {\left( {\frac{{539}}{{4\pi }}} \right)^{\frac{1}{3}}}m \end{array}\)

Now, Surface area of sphere is \(= \;4 \times \;\frac{{22}}{7} \times \;{\left( {\frac{{539}}{{4\pi }}} \right)^{\frac{2}{3}}} = 154{m^2}\)
