If the surface area of a cube is increasing at a rate of 3 . 6 c m 2 / s e c , retaining its shape; then the rate of change of its volume (in c m 3 / s e c ), when the length of a side of the cube is 10 c m , is:
Options
- A20
- B10
- C18
- D9
Correct answer
D. 9
Step-by-step solution
Surface area of cube s = 6 a 2 ⇒ d s d t = 12 a d a d t = 3 . 6 ⇒ 12 10 d a d t = 3 . 6 ⇒ d a d t = 0 . 03 c m / s e c Now, volume of cube V = a 3 ⇒ d v d t = 3 a 2 . d a d t = 3 ( 10 ) 2 0 . 03 = 9 c m 3 / s e c
