SSC CPO - 9 Dec 2025 - Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q145

If the area of the circular base of a hemisphere is 308, find the volume of the hemisphere

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

πr² = 308

Volume of hemisphere = (2/3)πr³

(22/7)r² = 308

⇒ r² = 98 ⇒ r = 7√2

Volume = (2/3) × (22/7) × (7√2)³

= (2/3) × (22/7) × 686√2

= (44/3) × 98√2

= 4312√2 / 3

=1437.33√2 cubic centimeters
