A horizontal trough is 1600 cm long and its ends are isosceles trapezoids with an altitude of 4 m, a lower base of 4 m, and an upper base of 6 m. Water is being poured into the trough at the rate of 10 m/min. How fast is the water level rising when the water is 200 cm deep? Hint: To formulate the equation for the volume, you may consider the trough as a cylinder with trapezoid base.
