An oil spill is the shape of a thin cylinder which is constantly 2 cm thick and is expanding. The volume of the spill is increasing by 30 cm^3 /sec. How fast is the radius increasing when the radius of the spill is 200 cm? The volume of a cylinder of heigh h and radius r is V= pi *r^2 *h

Solution = _________

Expert Solution
Step 1

Let r and h, in cm be the radius and height of cylinder at any time t . Let V cm^3 be the volume of cylinder at any time t. Height of cylinder is  constantly 2 cm, that is h=2cm.

Since,  volume of the spill is increasing by 30 cm^3 /sec.
