Question

The radius of a sphere, 'r', is equal to the radius of the base of a right circular cylinder. The total volume of these two solids = 73\frac{7}{3}πr3\text{πr}^3​. If 'h' is the height of the cylinder, find hr\frac{\text{h}}{\text{r}}​.

Correct option is C

Given:

The radius of the sphere = radius of the base of the right circular cylinder = r

Total volume =73πr3 \frac{7}{3} \pi r^3​​

Formula Used:

Volume of a sphere: Vsphere=43πr3V_{\text{sphere}} = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3​​

Volume of a cylinder: Vcylinder=πr2h_{\text{cylinder}} = \pi r^2 h​​

Solution:

43πr3+πr2h=73πr3\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 + \pi r^2 h = \frac{7}{3} \pi r^3​​

πr2h=73πr343πr3\pi r^2 h = \frac{7}{3} \pi r^3 - \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3​​

πr2h=33πr3\pi r^2 h = \frac{3}{3} \pi r^3

πr2h=πr3\pi r^2 h = \pi r^3

r2h=r3r^2 h = r^3

h = r

hr=1\frac hr =1​​
