A. 9 : 4

B. 4 : 3

C. 2 : 9

D. 1 : 3

Answer: Option B

Solution (By Examveda Team)

$$\eqalign{ & R \to 1:2 \cr & V \to 1:3 \cr & {\text{Height}} \to h:H \cr & \frac{1}{3} = \frac{{1 \times h}}{{4 \times H}} \cr & \left\{ {\frac{1}{3},\,\pi {\text{ is constant}}} \right. \cr & \frac{h}{H} = \frac{4}{3} \cr} $$
