8. The volume of a sphere is 972pi m^3. What is the surface area of the sphere in terms of pi? (Do not type pi again....it is already given to you. Only put a number in the blank)(1 point)

1 answer

Surface area = 4r^2

Given that the volume of the sphere is 972pi, we can find the radius using the formula for volume of a sphere:

V = (4/3) * pi * r^3
972pi = (4/3) * pi * r^3
r^3 = (3 * 972) / 4
r^3 = 729
r = 9

Now we can find the surface area:

Surface area = 4 * 9^2
Surface area = 4 * 81
Surface area = 324

Therefore, the surface area of the sphere is 324π.
