Correct Answer: 3,850


Solution : Given: The length of the largest possible rod that can be placed in a cubical room is $35\sqrt3$ metres.
The length of the largest rod = diagonal of the cube = side × $\sqrt3$
Here, side × $\sqrt3=35\sqrt3$
Or, the side of the cube = 35 metres
Now, the radius of the largest possible sphere that fits within the cubical room = $\frac{35}{2}$ metres
Therefore, the surface area of the sphere:
= $4\pi (\frac{35}{2})^2$
= $4×\frac{22}{7}×\frac{35}{2}×\frac{35}{2}$
= 3850 sq. metres
Hence, the correct answer is 3850.
