  • Question
  • The volumes of a sphere and a right circular cylinder having the same radius are equal. The ratio of the diameter of the sphere to the height of the cylinder is?


  • Options
  • A. 1 : 2
  • B. 2 : 1
  • C. 2 : 3
  • D. 3 : 2

  • Correct Answer
  • 3 : 2 

    Explanation

    Let r = Radius of cylinder = Radius of sphere, h = Height of the cylinder.
    According to the question.
    4/3?r3 = ?r2h
    ? h = 4r/3
    ? 4r = 3h
    ? 2r = 3/2h
    ? 2r/h = 3/2
    ? Required ration = 3 : 2
