Directions : Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below.
A hollow cylinder A of radius 14cm is full with water and a solid cylinder B with radius 7cm is put inside the hollow cylinder, then the remaining quantity of water is 9240 cm³. The height of both the cylinder is same.

Find the height of the cylinder (in cm).

Answer: C. 20The remaining water volume is the difference between the volumes of the two cylinders: pi*h*(14^2 - 7^2) = 9240. This gives pi*h*147 = 9240. Using pi = 22/7,…

Correct answer: C

The remaining water volume is the difference between the volumes of the two cylinders: pi*h*(14^2 - 7^2) = 9240. This gives pi*h*147 = 9240. Using pi = 22/7, h = 20 cm.
