Question

area of two spheres are in the ratio 1 is to 4 then the ratio of their volumes​

Answer 1

Explanation:

We know area of a sphere is given by

A = 4 * 3.14 * (radius)^2

And

Volume = (4/3) * 3.14 * (radius)^3

Let the radii of two spheres be r and R respectively.

Ratio of their surface areas is

(4*3.14*r^2)/(4*3.14*R^2) = 1/4

Or (r/R)^2 = (1/2)^2

Or r/R = 1/2

Now the ratio of their volumes is

((4/3)*3.14*r^3)/((4/3)*3.14*R^3)

= (r/R)^3

= (1/2)^3

= 1/8

So the ratio of their volumes is 1:8
