An upright cylindrical tank with radius 5 m is being filled with water at a rate of 2 m3/min. How fast is the height of the water increasing? (Round the answer to four decimal places.)

Respuesta :

Answer:

The height of water increasing is 8.5 x 10^-4 m/s.  

Explanation:

radius, r = 5 m

Volume per second, dV/dt = 2 m^3/min = 2/60 m^3/s

Let the height of cylinder is h.

The volume of the cylinder is given by

[tex]V = \pi r^2 h \\\\\frac{dV}{dt} = \pi r^2 \frac{dh}{dt}\\\\\frac{2}{30} = 3.14\times 5\times 5\times \frac{dh}{dt}\\\\\frac{dh}{dt}=8.5 \times 10^{-4} m/s[/tex]
