Question
In a cylinder, if radius is halved and height is doubled, the volume will be:
  1. Same.
  2. Doubled.
  3. Halved.
  4. Four times.

Answer

  1. Halved.

Solution:

Volume of cylinder $\text{V}=\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}$

If $\text{r}'=\frac{\text{r}}{2}$ and $\text{h}'=2\text{h}$ then

Then $\text{V}'=\pi\Big(\frac{\text{r}}{2}\Big)^22\text{h}$

$=\frac{\pi\text{r}^2}{\not4_2}\times\not2\text{h}$

$\frac{\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}}{2}=\frac{\text{V}}{2}$
