Question : A cylindrical tank of capacity $64\pi$ litres has equal height and radius. What would be the radius of the cylinder? (1 litre = 1000 cm3)

Option 1: 5 cm

Option 2: 40 cm

Option 3: 50 cm

Solution : Let the height and radius of the cylinder be $x$.
Given volume = $64\pi$ litres = $64000\pi$ cm3
We know that,
Volume of the cylinder = $\pi r^2h$
So, $\pi\times x^2\times x=64000\pi$
⇒ $x^3=64000$
$\therefore x= 40$
Hence, the correct answer is 40
