Suppose a liquid is to be cleared of sediment by pouring it through a cone-shaped filter. Assume that the height of the cone is 16 in. and the radius at the base of the cone is 4in. If the liquid is flowing out of the cone at a rate of 2in3/min when the level is 8in. deep, how fast is the depth of the liquid decreasing at that instant
