  1. The volumes of a right circular cylinder and a sphere are equal. The radius of the cylinder and the diameter of the sphere are equal. The ratio of height and radius of the cylinder is
    1. 3 : 1
    2. 1 : 3
    3. 6 : 1
    4. 1 : 6
Correct Option: D

Radius of cylinder = r units
Radius of sphere = r/2 units
Let the height of cylinder be h units,
∴ Volume of cylinder = Volume of sphere

⇒ πr²h =
4
π
r
³
32

⇒ πr²h =
1
πr³
6

⇒ h =
