Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
- Let the original radius $ =r $ and original height $ =h $
Original volume $ =\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h $
New radius $ =2,r $ and height $ =h $
New volume $ =\frac{1}{3}\times \pi \times {{(2r)}^{2}}\times h=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{2}h $
$ =4\times \frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h=4\times Originalvolume. $
