Correct Answer: 24


Solution : Let the radius of the first sphere be $r$ and the radius of the second sphere be $R$.
According to the question,
$2r=2R×2$
⇒ $R=\frac{r}{2}$
The curved surface area of the first sphere = $4\pi r^2$
The volume of the second sphere = $\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3$
According to the question,
$4\pi r^2=\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3$
⇒ $r^2=\frac{1}{3} (\frac{r}{2})^3$
⇒ $r^2=\frac{r^3}{24}$
$\therefore r =24$ cm
Hence, the correct answer is 24.
