Question : To have a surface area of $9\pi$ square units of a ball, what should be the diameter (in units) of the ball?
Option 1: 2.5
Option 2: 2
Option 3: 1.5
Option 4: 3
Correct Answer: 3
Solution :
Let the radius of the ball be $r$ units.
So, the surface area = $4\pi r^2$
According to the question,
$9\pi = 4\pi r^2$
⇒ $\frac{9}{4} = r^2$
$\therefore$ $r = \frac{3}{2}$
And d = $2r$ = 3 units.
Hence, the correct answer is 3.
