Question:

Radius of base of a right circular cone and a sphere is each equal to r. If the sphere and the cone have the same volume. then what is the height of the cone?

Options:

7r

4r

2r

3r

Correct Answer:

4r

Explanation:

Volume of cone = \(\frac{1}{3}\) × π × r2 × h

Volume of sphere = \(\frac{4}{3}\) × π × r3

Let the height = h

According to the question,

= \(\frac{1}{3}\) × π × r2 × h = \(\frac{4}{3}\) × π × r3

h = 4r
