Question

The total solid angle subtended by the sphere is
  1. 0.25π
  2. 1π
  3. 2π
  4. 4π
  5. 0.5π

A
0.25π
B
2π
C
1π
D
0.5π
E
4π
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Solid angle is given by area subtended divided by r2.

Ω=ΔSr2

Now, area subtended by a sphere is the whole surface area of sphere=4πr2

Ω=4πr2r2

Ω=4π

Answer-(E)
