Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 96π

The radius of the base of a cylindrical tank is 4m.

It is given that three times the sum of the areas of its circular faces is twice the area of its curved surface.

⇒ 3 × 2πr2 = 2 × 2πrh

⇒ 6r = 4h

⇒ h = 6m.

Volume of cylinder = πr2h.

⇒ π × 4 × 4 × 6 = 96π.
