Volume of Spheres and Cones

Question 5 • Mathematical Models with Applications - MA4072 CR

How do the surface area and volume of a sphere differ in the label of the answer?

Answer
A
The volume of a sphere is expressed in square units and the surface area of a sphere is expressed in cubic units.
B
The volume of a sphere is expressed in cubic units and the surface area of a sphere is expressed square units.
C
The volume and surface area of a sphere are both expressed in cubic units.
D
The surface area of a sphere cannot be determined because a sphere is a round shape.

Explanation

Volume measures three-dimensional space, so it is expressed in cubic units. Surface area measures the two-dimensional area covering the sphere, so it is expressed in square units. Therefore, choice b is correct.
