Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 16 : 1 Given: The capacity of cylinders A and B are equal. Volume(A) = Volume(B) The ratio of diameters = A ∶ B = 1 ∶ 4 Formula Used: Volume of cylinder = πr2 h Diameter = 2 × r Where, r → Radius of the cylinder h → Height of the cylinder Calculation: r = D/2 The ratio of the radius of A and B \(\Rightarrow \frac{{Diamater\;of\;A}}{{Diameter\;of\;B}} = 1/4\) The capacity of cylinders A and B are equal. Volume(A) = Volume(B) ⇒ π× r(A)2× h(A) = π× r(B)2× h(B) ⇒ r(A)2× h(A) = r(B)2× h(B) ⇒ r(A)2/r(B)2 = h(B)/ h(A) ⇒12/42 = h(B)/ h(A) ⇒1/16 = h(B)/ h(A) ⇒ h(A)/h(B) = 16/1 ⇒ h(A) : h(B) = 16 : 1 ∴ The ratio of the heights of A and B is 16 ∶ 1. |
