The surface area of Spaceship Earth is: 7850 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Diameter of spherical structure = d = 50 meters

As the attraction is in the form of a sphere, its radius will be used to find the surface area.

$Radius = r = \frac{d}{2} = \frac{50}{2} = 25\ m$

The formula for surface area of sphere is:

$SA = 4\pi r^2\\= 4 * 3.14 * (25)^2\\= 4*3.14*625\\=7850\ m^2$

The surface area of Spaceship Earth is: 7850 m^2
