What geometric surface encloses the maximum volume with the minimum surface area?
a sphere
If the volume of a sphere is 3000pie meters cubed what is the surface area of the sphere?
2,157.7 square meters.
What is the ratio of surface area to volume for a sphere with the following measurements Surface area equals 588 m2Volume equals 1372 m3?
0.4 m-1 is the ration of surface area 588m2 to volume 1372m3 for a sphere.
What are the characteristics of a globe?
A globe is a sphere in which two mathematical formulae are used to calculate its surface area and its volume: Surface area of a sphere = 4*pi*radius2 in square units. Volume of a sphere = 4/3*pi*radius3 in cubic units.
Do solids that have the same volume have the same surface area?
Not necessarily. Having the same volume does not mean having the same surface area. As an example, if you were to take a sphere with volume 4/3*pi*r^3, and a suface area of 4*pi*r^2, and compare it to a cube with sides 4/3, pi, and 4^3, you would find that they had a different surface area, but the same volume. Let the radius of the sphere be 2, that is r = 2. In this case the surface are of the sphere is about 50, and the surface are of the cube is about 80. So a sphere and a cube, both with a volume of about 33.51 (4/3 * pi * 8), have different surface areas.
