Solution

The correct option is C 11.363 cm
Given, Volume of the cylinder =πr2h=7 liters=7000 cm3(as 1 litre=1000 cm3)

Also, curved surface area of cylinder =2πrh=1000 cm2

Now, getting the ratio of volume and the curved surface area,

We~get,πr2h:2πrh=7
Thus, r = 14 cm.

So, height of the cylinder, h = Curved surface area of the cylinder ÷2πr
h=1000÷28π
h=11.363 cm
