Surface area of a sphere of radius r is 4πr2
Explanation:
Original radius of globe = 1o units and distance between A and B is 25 units
Now, after expansion, radius is 50 unit
so radius increase 5 times.
Therefore, surface area will increase 52 = 25 times
Hence now distance between A and B = 25 × 25 = 625 unit
Option (4) is correct
