Answer
When a solid sphere is cut into identical hemispheres.
Let radius of sphere be r.
Volume of a sphere =
Volume of hemisphere =
Volume of 2 hemisphere = .
The total volume of two hemispheres is equal to the volume of the original sphere.
Surface area of sphere = 4πr2
Surface area of hemisphere = 3πr2
Surface area of 2 hemisphere = 2 × 3πr2 = 6πr2.
The surface area of two hemispheres is not equal to the surface area of the original sphere.
Hence, Option 3 is the correct option.
