The video tutorial explains the concepts of total surface area and volume of a sphere. It uses a beach ball analogy to describe the surface area as the material covering the sphere and the volume as the air inside it. The tutorial provides formulas for calculating both properties: surface area as 4πr² and volume as 4/3πr³. The instructor demonstrates these calculations with examples, emphasizing the importance of leaving answers in terms of π for precision.
