The radius of a hemispherical balloon increases from 6 cm to 12 cm as air is being pumped into it. The ratio of the surface areas of the balloon in the two cases is
(a) 1: 4
(b) 1 : 3
(c) 2 : 3
(d) 2: 1
Solution:
Radius of balloon (hemispherical) in the original position = 6 cm
and in increased position = 12 cm
Ratio in their surface areas
