Question

Spaceship Earth, a spherical attraction at Walt Disney World’s Epcot Center, has a diameter of 50 meters. Find the surface area of the structure.

Answer 1

7,850 m^2

Explanation:

The formula for find surface area for a sphere is simply 4*3.14*r^2

Once you know that you just have to plug in

d=50, r=25

=4*3.14*25^2

=12.56*625

=7,850

Hope this helped! You can also use online calculators to find this answer faster/easier.

Answer 2

Surface area of Walt Disney World's Epcot Center = 31,400 m²

Explanation:

surface area of a sphere A = 4
`\pi` r²

here r = 50 m

so the suface area of the sphere A

= 4 × 3.14 × 50²

= 12.56 × 2500

= 31,400 m²

So surface area of Walt Disney World's Epcot Center = 31,400 m²
