☆☞QUESTION:-☜☆
A cylinder whose height is two-third of its diameter, has the same volume as that of a
sphere of radius 4 cm. Find the radius of base of the cylinder.
☆Concept:-☆
Taking out the variables of the question and equating it in the form of volumes.
☆ STEP BY STEP SOLUTION☆:-
Let the diameter of cylider be = x cm
And so its height will be 2/3 i.e,= 2/3 of x=2x/3.
Formula of:-
1) Volume of sphere= 4/3 πr³
2)Volume of cylinder=πr²h
as its diameter is "x cm".
thereby its radius will be x/2 cm ----> Cylinder.
So,moving forward and answering the question by equating the equations , here we go :)
☆The radius of sphere is given to be = 4cm.
=> 4/3 πr³=πr²h
=>4/3r³=r²h
=>4/3r=h-----(1)
radius of sphere =4 cm and height of cylinder= 2x/3 cm.
keeping this in equation one.
=>4/3 x 4=2x/3 cm
=>x=8cm (after solving).
=> but 'x' is the diameter her of cylinder,
so,radius= x/2 cm.
=> 8/2 cm.
=>4cm.
IS THE RADIUS OF CYLINDER.
ANSWER:-
4cm is the radius of cylinder.
