    The curved surface of a cylindrical pillar is \[264\,\,{{\text{m}}^{2}}\] and Its volume is \[924\,\,{{\text{m}}^{3}}\]. Taking \[\pi =\frac{22}{7},\]find the ratio of its diameter to its height

    A)  7 : 6                            

    B)  6 : 7

    C)  3 : 7                            

    D)  7 : 3

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    If r be radius of base and h the height, then    Curved surface of cylindrical pillar \[=2\pi rh\]  and volume \[=\pi {{r}^{2}}h\]           \[\therefore \]       \[2\pi rh=264\,\,{{m}^{2}}\]                            ?(i) \[\pi {{r}^{2}}h=924\,\,{{m}^{3}}\]                           ?(ii)         On dividing Eq. (ii) by Eq. (i), we get                                \[\frac{\pi {{r}^{2}}h}{2\pi rh}=\frac{924}{264}\,\,m\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\frac{r}{2}=\frac{924}{264}\,\,m\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[r=\frac{924\times 2}{264}\,\,m=7\,\,m\] \[\therefore \]Diameters \[=2\times 7=14\,\,m\] From Eq. (i), \[h=\frac{264}{\pi \times d}=\frac{264}{22\times 14}=6\,\,m\] \[\therefore \]Required ratio \[=\frac{14}{6}\]i.e., 7 : 3
