Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation

\(\frac{h_1}{h_2}\) = \(\frac{2}{3}\)

h2 = \(\frac{2h_1}{3}\)

\(\frac{r_1}{r_2}\) = \(\frac{9}{8}\)

r2 = \(\frac{9r_1}{8}\)

v1 = \(\pi\)(\(\frac{9r_1}{8}\))2(\(\frac{2h_1}{3}\))

= \(\pi\)r1 2h1 x \(\frac{27}{32}\)

v = \(\frac{\pi r_1 2h_1 \times \frac{27}{32}}{\pi r_1 2h_1}\) = \(\frac{27}{32}\)

v2 : v1 = 27 : 32
