Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : 2816 cm3

Given:

Ratio of Curved surface and total surface area of cylinder = 7 : 11

Curved surface area of cylinder = 704 cm2 

Formula Used:

Curved surface area = 2πrh ,  where r = radius of base and h = height of cylinder

Total Surface area = 2πrh + 2πr2 = 2πr(h + r)

Volume of cylinder = πr2h

Calculation:

(2πrh)/[2πr(h + r)] = 7/11

⇒ h/(h + r) = 7/11

⇒ 11h = 7h + 7r

⇒ 4h = 7r

⇒ h/r = 7/4

Let the height be 7x and radius be 4x, then,

704 = 2 × (22/7) × 7x × 4x

⇒ x2 = (704 × 7)/(28 × 22 × 2)

⇒ x2 = 4

⇒ x = 2

Putting values back in 7x and 4x we get,

Radius = 4x = 4 × 2 = 8 cm

Height = 7x = 7 × 2 = 14 cm

Volume of cylinder = (22/7) × 8 × 8 × 14

⇒ V = 2816 cm3

∴ The volume of cylinder is 2816 cm3.
