The Volume of a Right Circular Cone of Radius rr And Height

Question 166

Short Answer

The volume of a right circular cone of radius rr and height hh is V=π3r2hV = \frac { \pi } { 3 } r ^ { 2 } h . Suppose that the radius and height of the cone are changing with respect to time tt .
a. Find a relationship between dVdt,drdt\frac { d V } { d t } , \frac { d r } { d t } , and dhdt\frac { d h } { d t } .
b. At a certain instant of time, the radius and height of the cone are 12 in. and 13 in. and are increasing at the rate of 0.2in./sec0.2 \mathrm { in } . / \mathrm { sec } and 0.5in./sec0.5 \mathrm { in } . / \mathrm { sec } , respectively. How fast is the volume of the cone increasing?
