Detailed Solution

Given that the radius of base is r.
The curved surface of a hemisphere =2π r 2  
Since the curved surface area of one hemisphere is 2π r 2  then for two it will be,
=2π r 2 +2π r 2 =4π r 2  
Thus the curved surface area of two joined hemispheres is 4π r 2  .
Therefore the correct option is 2.
