    When a metallic sphere is healed, the largest increase is in its:

    A) volume                                

    B) area

    C)  diameter           

    D)  same in all

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    We know that, Volume of sphere \[=\frac{4}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}\] where r is radius. When sphere is heated its volume will increase in cube. Also surface area of a sphere \[=4\pi {{r}^{2}}\] On heating the sphere, surface area value will increase in square. Diameter =2r Diameter will increase as per r. Hence, we observe that maximum increase takes place in volume of the sphere.
