Q97

A cone, a hemisphere and a cylinder stand on equal bases and have the same height. The ratio of their respective volume is

A.
1 : 2 : 3
Answer
B.
2 : 1 : 3
C.
1 : 3 : 2
D.
3 : 1 : 2

Answer: Option A

Solution

Answer: Option A
Solution:
In this case height of cylinder and cone is equal to the radius of hemisphere
⇒ h = r
Ratio of volumes
\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {}&{{\text{Cone}}}&{}&{{\text{Hemisphere}}}&{}&{{\text{Cylinder}}} \\ = &{\frac{1}{3}\pi {r^2} \times r}&:&{\frac{2}{3}\pi {r^3}}&:&{\pi {r^2} \times r} \\ = &1&:&2&:&3 \end{array}
