Answer

Given, diameter = 21 cm.

Radius = Diameter2=212=10.5\dfrac{\text{Diameter}}{2} = \dfrac{21}{2} = 10.5 cm.

Surface area of sphere = 4πr2.

Putting values in equation we get,

Surface area of sphere =4×227×(10.5)2=4×22×110.257=97027=1386 cm2.\text{Surface area of sphere } = 4 \times \dfrac{22}{7} \times (10.5)^2 \\[1em] = \dfrac{4 \times 22 \times 110.25}{7} \\[1em] = \dfrac{9702}{7} = 1386 \text{ cm}^2.

Volume of sphere = 43πr3\dfrac{4}{3}πr^3

Putting values in equation we get,

Volume of sphere =43×227×(10.5)3=4×22×1157.62521=10187121=4851 cm3.\text{Volume of sphere } = \dfrac{4}{3} \times \dfrac{22}{7} \times (10.5)^3 \\[1em] = \dfrac{4 \times 22 \times 1157.625}{21} \\[1em] = \dfrac{101871}{21} \\[1em] = 4851 \text{ cm}^3.

Hence, the surface area of sphere = 1386 cm2 and volume of sphere = 4851 cm3.
