T_T is right. The answer is 0 and can be got by using pure common sense. It is quite obvious that a point chosen at random from a sphere cannot be exactly on the surface.
@hsbhatt There is no density involved here. the probability = favourable volume / total volume.
Favourable volume =area x height= 4 r2 dr But since dr is infinitely small , this quantity will be 0. dr can be assumed to be non-zero only when we are using integration.
Total volume = 4 R3/3. Since this is finite , the final answer will be 0.
