If the surface area of a sphere of radius r is increasing uniformly at the rate 8 ~cm ^2 / s , then the rate of change of its volume is:
Options
- Aconstant
- Bproportional to r
- Cproportional to r^2
- Dproportional to r
Correct answer
D. proportional to r
Step-by-step solution
aligned & V = 4 3 r^3 d ~V d t =4 r^2 d r d t & ~S =4 r^2 d ~S d t =8 r d r d t & 8=8 r d r d t d r d t = 1 r aligned Putting the value of d r d t in (i), we get d ~V d t =4 r^2 1 r =4 r d ~V d t is proportional to r .
