A Sphere is a body or space contained under a single surface, in which every part of it is at an equal distant from a point within called as its center. An object having a shape of a ball or a globe is a sphere. Examples: Find the volume and curved surface area of a Sphere with the given radius 2. Step 1: Find the volume. read more
Sphere Image/Diagram Sphere Example : Case 1: Find the volume and curved surface area of a Sphere with the given radius 3. Step 1: Find the volume. Volume = (4/3)πr³ = (4/3) * 3.14 * 3³ = 1.33 * 3.14 * 27 = 113. Step 2: Find the curved surface area(CSA). read more
For example, a shot (a heavy iron ball) is a solid sphere and a tennis ball is a hollow sphere. One-half of a sphere is called a hemisphere. Archimedes discovered that a cylinder that circumscribes a sphere, as shown in the following diagram, has a curved surface area equal to the surface area, S, of the sphere. read more
