Consider an expanding sphere of instantaneous radius RR whose total mass remains constant. The expansion is such that the instantaneous density ρρ remains uniform throughout the volume. The rate of fractional change in density (1ρdρdt)\left(\dfrac{1}{ρ}\dfrac{dρ}{dt}\right) is constant. The velocity vv of any point on the surface of the expanding sphere is proportional to

Options

  1. AR3{R}^{3}
  2. B1R\dfrac{1}{R}
  3. CRR
  4. DR23{R}^{\dfrac{2}{3}}

Correct answer

C. RR

Step-by-step solution

Density of sphere is ρ = \dfrac{m}{v} = \dfrac{3m}{4π{R}^{3}}

\to \dfrac{1}{ρ}\dfrac{dρ}{dt} = - \dfrac{3}{R}\dfrac{dR}{dt}

Since \to \dfrac{1}{ρ}\dfrac{dρ}{dt} is constant

∴ \dfrac{dR}{dt} ∝ R
