Answer

The volume of the sphere is $\frac{256}{3}\pi \text{ cm}^3$. The surface area of the sphere is $64\pi \text{ cm}^2$.

Work Step by Step

The volume $V$ of a sphere is given by the formula $V=\frac{4}{3}\pi{r}^3$ where $r$ the radius. Substitute the given values to obtain: $V=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi (4\text{ cm})^3$ $V=\dfrac{256}{3}\pi \;cm^3$ Hence, the volume of the sphere is $\frac{256}{3}\pi \text{ cm}^3$. Surface area of the sphere $S=4\pi r^2$. Substitute the given values to obtain: $S=4\pi (4\text{ cm})^2$ $S=64\pi \text{ cm}^2$ Hence, the surface area of the sphere is $64\pi\text{ cm}^2$.
