A hemispherical bowl and a full spherical ball both have radius 7 cm. The bowl is to be painted on its curved surface only and the ball all over. Find how much more area (in cm2) the ball needs than the bowl's curved surface (take π = 22/7). (CSA = curved surface area, TSA = total surface area)

Step-by-Step Solution
Ball SA = 4*π*r2=616cm2. Bowl CSA = 2*π*r2=308cm2. Difference =616−308=308cm2.
