Question

A cone and a sphere have equal radii and equal volumes . Find the ratio of the diameter of the sphere to the height of the cone .


Options:
A .  1 : 2
B .  2 : 3
C .  1 : 3
D .  2 : 5
Answer: Option A

Let radius of each be R and height of the cone be  H.

Then , ` 4/3 pi R^3 = 1/3 pi R^2 H`

or` R/H = 1/4    or   (2R)/(H) = 2/4 = 1/2`

`:.`      Required ratio = 1 : 2 .
