For spheres, the surface shape factor is given by (where, A = area, V = volume, and D = diameter) ?

Correct answer: A. π = (A/D2)

  • A. π = (A/D2)
  • B. π/6 = (V/D3)
  • C. AD/V
  • D. None of these

Explanation

For a sphere, surface area A = πD², so the surface shape factor A/D² equals π. The expression V/D³ equals π/6 and is a volume relation, not the requested surface shape factor.
