Question
The volumes of two cones are in the ratio 1 : 10 and the radii of the cones are in the ratio of 1 : 2. What is the length of the wire?
Options:
A .  2 : 5
B .  1 : 5
C .  3 : 5
D .  4 : 5
E .  None of these
Answer: Option A


The volume of the cone = (1/3)Ï€r2h Only radius (r) and height (h) are varying.Hence, (1/3)Ï€ may be ignored. V1/V2 = r12h1/r22h2  => 1/10  =  (1)2h1/(2)2h2 => h1/h2 = 2/5  i.e. h1 : h2 = 2 : 5
