A water ride at a local water park has a ride shaped like a cone that acts like a funnel whereby guests swirl around the cone until they drop through its center. There is one ride for adults and a similar, smaller version for children. If the adult ride has a radius of 32 feet and the child ride has a radius of 24 feet, what is the ratio between the volumes of each ride?

ghazi · Answer

volume of cone= $$\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }* \pi * r^2*l$$ so just take the ratio of radius^2

ghazi · Answer

(32)^2/(24)^2
