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

A sphere fitting inside a cylinder cannot have a diameter larger than the cylinder’s internal diameter. Since the cylinder radius is r, its diameter is 2r, so the enclosed sphere has diameter 2r.
