The volume of a cylinder and cone are in the ratio 3 : 1 with same height. How are their diameters compared?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Ratio of volume:
Cylinder : Cone = \(\pi\)r12h : \(\frac{1}{3}\) \(\pi\) r22h
⇒ 3 r12 : r22 = 3 : 1 (given)
Therefore,
⇒ r12 : r22 = 1 : 1
⇒ r1 : r2 = 1 : 1 ⇒ diameters are also equal
So, diameter of cylinder = diameter of cone
