Answer» LET RADIUS of cylinder be r and radius of sphere be R Volume of a right CIRCULAR cylinder = πr2h Volume of a sphere = (4/3)πR3 Given, R = 2r Ratio of the volumes of a right circular cylinder and a sphere is 3 : 2 $(\Rightarrow \;\FRAC{{\pi {r^2}h}}{{\frac{4}{3}\pi {R^3}}}\; = \;\frac{3}{2})$ ⇒ h = 16r Curved Surface area of a right circular cylinder = 2πrh Surface area of the sphere = 4πR2 ∴ Ratio of the surface areas of the cylinder and the sphere $(= \;\frac{{2\pi rh}}{{4\pi {R^2}}}\; = \;\frac{{32{r^2}}}{{4 \times 4{R^2}}}\; = \;2\;:\;1)$ |
