    The volume of a right circular cylinder is equal to the volume of that right circular cone whose height is 108 cm and diameter of base is 30 cm. If the height of the cylinder is 9 cm, the diameter of its base is

    A) 30 cm              

    B) 60 cm

    C) 50 cm              

    D) 40 cm

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Volume of the cone \[=\frac{1}{3}\pi {{(15)}^{2}}\times 108\,cm\] Volume of cylinder             \[=\pi \times {{r}^{2}}\times 9\,c{{m}^{3}}\] According to the question,             \[=\pi \times {{r}^{2}}\times 9\]             \[=\frac{1}{3}\pi \times 15\times 15\times 108\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[{{r}^{2}}=\frac{5\times 15\times 108}{9}\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[{{r}^{2}}=900\]  \[\Rightarrow \] \[r=30\] Diameter of base \[=2r=2\times 30=60\,cm\]
