The volume of oil in a cylindrical container is increasing at a rate of 150 cubic inches per second. The height of the cylinder is approximately ten times the radius. At what rate is the height of the oil changing when the oil is 35 inches high?

Answer :

Answer: The height of the oil changing at the rate of [tex]\dfrac{200}{49\pi}\ inches/sec[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

volume is increasing at a rate of 150 cubic inches per second.

Height of cylinder = 10 times of radius.

As we know the formula for "Volume":

[tex]V=\pi r^2h\\\\V=\pi (\dfrac{h}{10})^2\times 10r\\\\V=\dfrac{1}{100}\pi h^3[/tex]

We will derivative it w.r.t 't'.

So, it becomes,

[tex]\dfrac{dv}{dt}=\dfrac{3h^2\pi}{100}\times \dfrac{dh}{dt}\\\\150=\dfrac{3h^2\pi}{100}\dfrac{dh}{dt}\\\\\dfrac{150\times 100}{3\times 35\times 35\times \pi}=\dfrac{dh}{dt}\\\\\dfrac{200}{49\pi}=\dfrac{dh}{dt}[/tex]

Hence, the height of the oil changing at the rate of [tex]\dfrac{200}{49\pi}\ inches/sec[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]\dot h = 1.299\,\frac{in}{s}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the cylindrical container is:

[tex]V = \pi\cdot r^{2}\cdot h[/tex]

Where:

[tex]r[/tex] - Radius, in inches.

[tex]h[/tex] - Height, in inches.

The rate of change of the volume is:

[tex]\dot V = 2\pi\cdot r \cdot h \cdot \dot r + \pi\cdot r^{2}\cdot \dot h[/tex]

[tex]\dot V = \pi \cdot r \cdot (2\cdot h \cdot \dot r + r \cdot \dot h)[/tex]

[tex]\dot V = 0.1\pi \cdot h \cdot (0.2 \cdot h \cdot \dot h + 0.1\cdot h \cdot \dot h)[/tex]

[tex]\dot V = 0.03\pi\cdot h^{2} \cdot \dot h[/tex]

The rate of change of the height is:

[tex]\dot h = \frac{\dot V}{0.03\pi\cdot h^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]\dot h = \frac{150\,\frac{in^{3}}{s} }{0.03\pi\cdot (35\,in)^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]\dot h = 1.299\,\frac{in}{s}[/tex]
