Sphere and Hemisphere-RRB

SPHERE

Image result for sphere
In the following formulae, r = radius of sphere, d = diameter of sphere = 2r
• Surface area of a sphere = 4πr² = πd2

• Volume of a sphere = (4/3) πr= (1/6)πd3

Example – 1

Calculate the volume of sphere with radius 4 cm.

Answer

Volume of sphere = (4/3) πr3

=  (4/3) π 43

= (4/3) \times (22/7)  \times 4  \times 4  \times 4

= 268.19 cm2

Example – 2

The volume of a spherical ball is 5,000 cm3. What is the radius of the ball?

Answer

According to question V = (4/3) πr= 5000 cm3

=> r3   = 5000 x 3/4  \times 7/22

=> r3   =1193.18 cm= (10.61)3

Hence r = 10.61

HEMISPHERE


In the following formulae, r = radius of sphere
• Volume of a hemisphere =(2/3)πr3
• Curved surface area of a hemisphere = 2πr²
• Total surface area of a hemisphere = 3πr²

Example – 3

The radius of hemispherical balloon increase from 7 cm to 14 cm as air is being pumped into it. Find the ratios of the surface areas of the balloon in two cases.

Answer

For 1st hemisphere, r = 7 cm
Total Surface Area = 3 π r² = 3  \times π  \times
Total Surface Area of hemisphere= 3 π  \times
Total Surface Area after increase = 3π  \times 14²
⇒ S 1 : S 2 = 3 π  \times 7²: 3π  \times 14² = 1 : 4

Example – 4

Show that the surface area of sphere is same as that of the lateral surface area of a cylinder that just encloses the sphere.

Answer

Total surface area of sphere = 4 π r² ——(1)
The radius and height of the cylinder that just encloses the sphere of radius r and 2r respectively.
∴ Curved Surface Area of cylinder = 2 π r h
= 2 π r  \times 2r (Since h = 2r)
∴ Curved Surface Area of cylinder = 4 π r²—-(2)
∴ From (1) and (2)
Surface area of sphere is same as that of the lateral surface area of a cylinder that just encloses the sphere.

Question 5: A sphere and a hemisphere have the same surface area. The ratio of their volumes is

A) 3–√4:1
B) 33–√4:1
C) 3–√8:1
D) 33/8 : 1
Solution:  Answer is D
Let r and R are the radius of two spheres
Given surface area of sphere = Surface area of hemisphere
So 4πr² = 3πR²
\Rightarrow r² / R² = \frac{3}{4} 
\Rightarrow \frac{r}{R} = 3/
Hence the ratio of volumes is (4/3) πr/ (4/3) πR
= r3/ R
=(\frac{r}{R} )³ = 33/8
Hence ratio is 33/8 : 1
