    Surface area to volume ratio of a sphere equals to 3/r, where r is the sphere's radius. Surface area of a sphere with radius r equals to 4pir^2. The volume of this sphere is 4/3pir^3. Ratio of the surface area to volume, therefore, equals to (4pir^2)/ (4/3pir^3)=4 (3/4) (pi/pi) (r^2/r^3)=3/r.

    A = int dA An area element on a sphere has constant radius r, and two angles. One is longitude phi, which varies from 0 to 2pi. The other one is the angle with the vertical. To avoid counting twice, that angle only varies between 0 and pi. So the area element is dA = r d theta r sin theta d phi = r^2 sin theta d theta d phi Integrated over the whole sphere gives A = int_0^pi sin theta d theta ...

    Explanation: to get r, square root r2. divide the surface area by 4pi and square root it. let r be the radius the surface area of a sphere is 4 x pi x r^2 thus, to find the radius, firstly, divide the surface area by 4 and pi, and you'll get r^2 to get r, square root r^2.

  6. Find the surface area of a sphere of radius r? | Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/5916194111ef6b75d706f800

    The Jacobian for Spherical Coordinates is given by J = ρ2sinϕ. And so we can calculate the surface area of a sphere of radius r using a double integral: A = ∫∫R dS. where R = {(x,y,z) ∈ R3 ∣ x2 +y2 + z2 = r2} ∴ A = ∫ π 0 ∫ 2π 0 r2sinϕ dθ dϕ. If we look at the inner integral we have: So our integral becomes: It is easier to ...

    The surface area of a sphere of radius #r# is #4 pi r^2#. Imagine dividing a sphere into a large number of slender pyramids with base at the surface and top at the centre of the sphere. The base of each pyramid will not be quite flat, but the more pyramids you divide the sphere into, the flatter the base of each will be.

    The area of the cross section is 380.134 square inches The cross section, of a sphere formed by a plane intersecting the sphere at an equator, is a circle of the same radius as that of the sphere itself (as may be seen from picture below). Hence, the area of the cross section is pir^2=pixx11^2=121pi = 121xx3.1416 ~=380.134 square inches.
