MCQ
A right circular cylinder and a right circular cone have the same radius and the same volume. The ratio of the height of the cylinder to that of the cone is:
  • A
    $3 : 5$
  • B
    $2 : 5$
  • C
    $3 : 1$
  • $1 : 3$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$1 : 3$

Volume of a right circular cylinder $=\pi\text{R}^2_1\text{H}_1=\text{v}_1$
Volume of a right circular cone $=\frac{1}3{}\pi\text{R}^2_2\text{H}_2=\text{v}_2$
If $\mathrm{V}^1=\mathrm{V}^2$ and $\mathrm{R}^1=\mathrm{R}^2$, then
$\pi\text{R}^2_1\text{H}_1=\frac{1}3{}\pi\big(\text{R}^2_1\big)\text{H}_2$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{H}_1}{\text{H}_2}=\frac{1}{3}$
