Question:

Sand is pouring from a pipe at the rate of 12cm^3/s. The falling sand forms a cone on the ground in such a way that the height of the cone is always one-sixth of the radius of the base. How fast is the height of the sand cone increasing when the height is 4cm.

Answer:

1. Given: rate of sand pouring = 12 cm^3/s, height of cone = 4 cm, ratio of height to radius = 1/6

2. Find: Rate of increase in height of sand cone

3. Formula: Rate of increase in height = (Rate of sand pouring) / (Volume of cone)

4. Calculate the radius of the cone: Radius = 6 × Height = 6 × 4 = 24 cm

5. Calculate the volume of the cone: Volume of cone = (1/3) × π × (Radius)^2 × Height = (1/3) × π × (24)^2 × 4 = 809.6 cm^3

6. Calculate the rate of increase in height of the sand cone: Rate of increase in height = (Rate of sand pouring) / (Volume of cone) = 12 cm^3/s / 809.6 cm^3 = 0.0148 cm/s

Question:

A balloon, which always remains spherical has a variable radius. Find the rate at which its volume is increasing with the radius when the later is 10cm.

Answer:

Step 1: Identify the formula for the volume of a sphere: V = (4/3)πr3

Step 2: Substitute the given radius (10 cm) into the formula: V = (4/3)π(10 cm)3

Step 3: Calculate the volume of the sphere: V = 4,189.79 cm3

Step 4: Calculate the rate of change of the volume with respect to the radius: dV/dr = (4/3)πr2

Step 5: Substitute the given radius (10 cm) into the formula: dV/dr = (4/3)π(10 cm)2

Step 6: Calculate the rate of change of the volume with respect to the radius: dV/dr = 4,188.79 cm3/cm

Question:

Find the rate of change of the area of a circle with respect to its radius r when (i) r=3 cm (ii) r=4 cm

Answer:

(i) When r=3 cm, the area of a circle is A=πr²

A = π(3)² A = 9π cm²

The rate of change of the area of a circle with respect to its radius r is dA/dr = 2πr

dA/dr = 2π(3) dA/dr = 6π cm/cm

(ii) When r=4 cm, the area of a circle is A=πr²

A = π(4)² A = 16π cm²

The rate of change of the area of a circle with respect to its radius r is dA/dr = 2πr

dA/dr = 2π(4) dA/dr = 8π cm/cm

Question:

A particle moves along the curve 6y=x^3+2. Find the points on the curve at which the y-coordinate is changing 8 times as fast as the x-coordinate.

Answer:

1. Write the equation of the curve in the standard form, y=f(x): y = (x^3 + 2)/6

2. Calculate the derivative of the equation: f’(x) = (3x^2)/6

3. Set the derivative equal to 8 times the x-coordinate: (3x^2)/6 = 8x

4. Solve for x: x = (48)^(1/3)

5. Substitute the value of x into the original equation to find the corresponding y-value: y = (48^(1/3) + 2)/6

Therefore, the points on the curve at which the y-coordinate is changing 8 times as fast as the x-coordinate are (48^(1/3), (48^(1/3) + 2)/6).

Question:

The length x of a rectangle is decreasing at the rate of 5 cm/minute and the width y is increasing at the rate of 4 cm/minute. When x=8 cm and y=6 cm, find the rates of change of the area of rectangle(in cm^2/min).

Answer:

Step 1: Find the area of the rectangle when x = 8 cm and y = 6 cm.

Area = x × y = 8 cm × 6 cm = 48 cm^2

Step 2: Find the rate of change of the length and width of the rectangle.

Rate of change of length (x) = -5 cm/min Rate of change of width (y) = 4 cm/min

Step 3: Find the rate of change of the area of the rectangle.

Rate of change of area = Rate of change of length × Rate of change of width = (-5 cm/min) × (4 cm/min) = -20 cm^2/min

Question:

The radius of an air bubble is increasing at the rate of 1​/2cm/s. At what rate is the volume of the bubble increasing when the radius is 1cm?

Answer:

1. Calculate the volume of the bubble when the radius is 1cm: V = (4/3)πr³ V = (4/3)π(1cm)³ V = (4/3)π cm³

2. Calculate the rate at which the volume is increasing when the radius is increasing at the rate of 1/2cm/s: Rate of change in volume = (4/3)π(1/2cm/s)³ Rate of change in volume = (4/3)π(1/8 cm³/s) Rate of change in volume = (4/24)π cm³/s

Therefore, the rate at which the volume of the bubble is increasing when the radius is 1cm is (4/24)π cm³/s.

The rate at which the radius of the balloon increases when the radius is 15 cm is 0.0028 m/s.

Question:

The radius of a circle is increasing uniformly at the rate of 3cm/s. Find the rate at which the area of the circle is increasing when the radius is 10cm.

Answer:

Step 1: Calculate the area of the circle when the radius is 10cm.

Area of the circle = π × (10 cm)2 = 314 cm2

Step 2: Calculate the rate at which the area of the circle is increasing.

Rate of change of area = (Change in area) / (Change in time) = (π × (Change in radius)2) / (Change in time) = (π × 32) / (3 cm/s) = 9π cm2/s

Question:

The total cost C(x) in Rupees associated with the production of x units of an item is given by C x)=0.007x^3−0.003x^2+15x+4000. Find the marginal revenue when x=17.

Answer:

C(x) = 0.007x^3−0.003x^2+15x+4000

Marginal Revenue = dC/dx

dC/dx = 0.021x^2 - 0.006x + 15

dC/dx (17) = 0.021(17)^2 - 0.006(17) + 15

dC/dx (17) = 462.9 - 0.102 + 15

dC/dx (17) = 476.8

Question:

Find the rate of change of the area of a circle with respect to its radius r when (i) r=3 cm (ii) r=4 cm A 6π,8π B 5π,8π C 4π,10π D 2π,8π

Answer:

Answer: C 4π,10π

Explanation: The formula for the area of a circle is A = πr^2.

(i) When r = 3 cm, the area of the circle is A = π(3)^2 = 9π.

(ii) When r = 4 cm, the area of the circle is A = π(4)^2 = 16π.

The rate of change of the area of the circle with respect to its radius r is the difference between the areas when r = 4 cm and r = 3 cm, which is 16π - 9π = 7π.

Therefore, the rate of change of the area of the circle with respect to its radius r is 4π when r = 3 cm and 10π when r = 4 cm. Therefore, the correct answer is C 4π,10π.
