Two cylinders of same volume have their radii in the ratio 3.1 what is the ratio of their heights

>

Two cylinders of equal volume have heights in the ratio 1 : 9. The ratio of their radii is .

Solution

3 : 1
Let r1, r2 be the radii and h1, h2 be the heights of two cylinders.
Given, h1h2=19 Now, according to the question.,

πr21h1=πr22h2 [volume of cylinder=πr2h]


r21r22=h2h1(r1r2)2=91r1r2=91r1r2=31
Hence, r1:r2=3:1
