Question:

A cylindrical tank of capacity 64π litres has equal height and radius. What would be the radius of the cylinder? (1 litre = 1000 cm3)

Options:

5 cm

40 cm

50 cm

4 cm

Correct Answer:

40 cm

Explanation:

We know that,

Volume of the tank = π r2 h 

We have,

Capacity of a cylindrical tank = 64π 

We also know, Height of tank = Radius of tank

Volume =  = 64000 π = πr3

As we know, 1litre = 1000 cm3

= 64000  =  r3

= r = 40 cm
