    Let radius of cylinder = 3x
    radius of cone = 4x
    Also, let height of cylinder = 2y and height of cylinder = 3y

    Volume of the cylinder
    Volumeof the cone

    =
    π
    (3x)² × 2y =
    18πx²y
    = 9 : 8

  1. A conical vessel whose internal radius is 12 cm and height 50 cm is full of liquid. The contents are emptied into a cylindrical vessel with radius (internal) 10 cm. The height to which the liquid rises in the cylindrical vessel is :

    In both the vessels, the volume of liquid will be same.
    ∴ Volume of liquid in cylinder = Volume of liquid in cone.
    Let the height of liquid column in cylinder be h cm, then

    πr²h =
    1
    π × (12)² × 50
    3

    ∴ h =
    1
    ×
    12 × 12 × 50
    310 × 10

    = 24cm

    According to question, 2πrh + 2πr² = 8πr²
    ⇒ 2πrh = 6πr²

    ∴ Required time =
    154
    = 2 hours
    r

    ∴ Required ratio = πr²h :
    4
