Correct Answer: 4 m 2


Solution : The Volume of a sphere is $\frac{500\pi}{3}$ m$^3$.
Side of square = 40% radius of the sphere
Area of square = Side$^2$
According to the question,
The volume of a sphere =  $\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$
⇒ $\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$ = $\frac{500\pi}{3}$
⇒ $r^3$ = $\frac{500}{4}$
⇒ $r^3$ = 125
⇒ $r$ = 5 m
Side of square = $\frac{40}{100} \times 5$ = 2 m
Area of square = Side$^2$
= 2$^2$ = 4 m 2
$\therefore$ Area of the square is 4 m$^2$.
Hence, the correct answer is 4 m$^2$.
