Question:
[Section A]
The ratio of the volume of a sphere to the volume of a cylinder of same radius and height equal to its diameter is:
(A) $2 : 3$
(B) $1 : 3$
(C) $2 : 1$
(D) $3 : 1$
Step-by-Step Solution
Key Concept: Sphere volume $= (4/3)\pi r^3$. Cylinder volume $= \pi r^2 (2r) = 2\pi r^3$. Ratio $= 4/3 : 2 = 2 : 3$.
Sol. (A) $2 : 3$. [1.0 Mark]
Correct Answer: (A) $2 : 3$
