a vertical cylinder is leaking water at a rate of ft3/sec. if the cylinder has a height of ft and a radius of ft, at what rate is the height of the water changing when the height is ft?

Respuesta :

The rate in the height of water changing for the given cylinder is equal to 0.318m/s.

As given in the question,

Change in volume represent the decrease in rate of change of water height in the cylinder in time t

dV/dt = 4m³/sec.

Decrease in volume represent the change in the height of the water

Let 'h' be the height

h = 10m

radius 'r' = 2m

V = πr²h

Rate of change of leaking water only change the height radius remain constant.

⇒V = (3.14)(2²) h

Differentiate both the side with respect to 't' to get the rate of change

dV/dt = (3.14)(4)dh/dt

⇒4 =(3.14)(4)dh/dt

⇒dh/dt = 4/ (3.14)(4)

⇒dh/dt = 0.318 m/s

Therefore, the rate of change of height is equal to 0.318m/s.

The complete question is:

A vertical cylinder is leaking water at a rate of 4m3/sec. If the cylinder has a height of 10m and a radius of 2m, at what rate is the height of the water changing when the height is 3m?
