Q.If a solid hemisphere and a solid cone have equal base areas and equal heights, then what is the ratio of their volumes? (a) 1:3 (b) 1:2 (c) 2:3 (d) 3:4
Answer: C
Let the height of the solid hemisphere = radius of the hemisphere = \(r\) units. ∴ The radius of the base of the solid cone = \(r\) units and its height = \(r\) units. ∴ Ratio of their volumes \[ = \frac{2}{3}\pi r^3 : \pi r^2 \cdot r = \frac{2}{3} : 1 = 2 : 3 \)
