Question
A balloon which always remains spherical has variable radius. Find the rate at which its volume is increasing with the radius when the later is 10 cm.
Solution
The correct answer is $400 \pi$ $cm^2/sec$
Explanation
Volume of a sphere V = $\dfrac{4}{3} \pi r^3$
$\dfrac{dV}{dr}$ = $\dfrac{d}{dr}$ $( \dfrac{4}{3} \pi r^3 )$ = $ \dfrac{4}{3} \pi (3r^2)$ = $4 \pi r^2$
When the radius is 10 cm, $\dfrac{dV}{dr}$ = $4 \pi (10)^2$ = $400 \pi$ $cm^2/sec$
