A sphere increases its volume at the rate of cc / s . The rate at which its surface area increases when the radius is 1 ~cm is
Options
- A2 sq cm / s
- Bsq cm / s
- C3 2 sq cm / s
- D2 sq cm / s
Correct answer
A. 2 sq cm / s
Step-by-step solution
Given rate of increase volume of sphere is d V d t = We know that, Volume of sphere; V= 4 3 r³ d V d t = 4 3 3 r² d r d t =4 r² d r d t =4 r² d r d t ; [from Eq. (i)] d r d t = 1 4 r² 5 Also, we know that, surface of sphere, aligned &S=4 r² & d S d t =8 r d r d t =8 r 1 4 r² [ from Eq. (ii)] & [ given r=1] & d S d t =2 aligned So, rate of increase in surface =2 sq cm / s
