Water is leaking out of an inverted conical tank at a rate of 15000 cubic centimeters per minute at the same time that water is being pumped into the tank at a constant rate. The tank has height 5 meters and the diameter at the top is 4 meters. If the water level is rising at a rate of 25 centimeters per minute when the height of the water is 3 meters, find the rate at which water is being pumped into the tank (in cubic centimeters per minute).
