SSC GD Constable (English) - 16 Jan 2023 - Shift 2 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q54

What is the surface area (in cm2 ) of a sphere whose diameter is 21 cm?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 1386

Given that 

Diameter = 21cm

Radius = diameter/2 = 21/2 = 10.5cm

Therefore surface area of sphere = 4π/r2

= 4 × 22/7 × 10.5 × 10.5

= 1386 cm2

Hence the surface area of the sphere is 1386cm2
