A right circular cylinder of radius r cm and height h cm (h > 2r) just encloses a sphere of diameter

  • A.r cm
  • B.2r cm
  • C.h cm
  • D.2h cm

Answer: B

For the sphere to be enclosed snugly, it must touch the curved wall all the way round, so its radius equals the cylinder's radius \( r \).

\[ \text{diameter of sphere} = 2r \]

The condition \( h > 2r \) simply guarantees the cylinder is tall enough to contain that sphere; the height itself never limits the fit, so it does not appear in the answer.
