Application of hyperspheres

Recently I've been studying the the volume of an n-ball. Do hyperspheres (or their volume/surface formulas) have any real-world applications?

I don't think this question deserves any downvotes as it is a legitimate question regarding mathematics. An actual answer to your question, I believe that multiple dimensions are like number theory in a way, while they may not be physically present in real life, they are interesting topics that may help us to discover new things. Hyperspheres (multiple dimensions in general) open up a new world of both mathematics and physics where the idea that we do not live in just the three dimensions we can see takes place. For example, string theory is one currently unproven theory that may or may not be correct, stating that many more dimensions exist, but they are too small for any life to observe.
