 Correct option is (D) \(\frac{7}{2}\)

Let radius of the sphere is r cm.

\(\therefore\) \(4\pi r^2\) = 154  \((\because\) Surface area of sphere \(=4\pi r^2)\)

\(r^2=\frac{154}{4\pi}=\frac{154\times7}{4\times22}=\frac{7\times7}4=\frac{7^2}{2^2}=(\frac72)^2\)

\(\therefore\) \(r=\frac72\)

Hence, radius of sphere is \(\frac72\,cm\)
