If a cylindrical vessel of given volume \(V\) with no lid on the top is to be made from a sheet of metal, then the radius \((r)\) and height \((h)\) of the vessel so that the metal sheet used is minimum, is

  1. A \(r=\sqrt[3]{\frac{\pi}{V}}, h=\sqrt[3]{\frac{\pi}{V}}\)
  2. B \(r=\sqrt{\pi V}, h=\sqrt{\pi V}\)
  3. C \(r=\sqrt[3]{\frac{V}{\pi}}, h=\sqrt[3]{\frac{V}{\pi}}\)
  4. D \(r=\sqrt{\frac{V}{\pi}}, h=\sqrt{\frac{V}{\pi}}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(r=\sqrt[3]{\frac{V}{\pi}}, h=\sqrt[3]{\frac{V}{\pi}}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We have given, \(V=\) volume of cylindrical vessel \(r=\) radius and \(h=\) height As we know for cylindrical vessel \[ v=\pi r^2 h \] Let \(S\) be the area of metal sheet used to form a cylindrical vessel. Then,…
