Question
If the height of a cylinder becomes one-eighth of the original height and the radius is doubled, then which of the following will be true? 
Options:
A .  Volume of the cylinder will be doubled.
B .  Volume of the cylinder will remain unchanged.
C .  Volume of the cylinder will be halved.
D .  Volume of the cylinder will be thrice that of the original cylinder
Answer: Option C
:
C
Let us assume the height and radius of the original cylinder is l and r respectively.
Let V1 be the original volume and V2 be the volume after the change in height and radius.
Therefore volume of the original cylinder is given by: V=πr2l
After, height of a cylinder becomes 18of the original height and the radius is doubled
We have, r2=2randl2=l8
So the new volume is given by:
V2=πr22l2=π(2r)2(l8)
V2=4πr2l8
V2=πr2l2=V12
V2=V12
Hence the volume of the cylinder will be halved.
