The height of a cylinder is increasing at a constant rate of 6 feet per second, and the volume is decreasing at a rate of 171 cu

bic feet per second. At the instant when the height of the cylinder is 6 feet and the volume is 1254 cubic feet, what is the rate of change of the radius? The volume of a cylinder can be found with the equation V = Tr²h. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is related rates in calculus, as far as I can tell from the info you've provided.  It's nice to see students are still trying to conquer its vagueness!

Start with the formula for volume of a cylinder:

V=\pi r^2h and then find its derivative with respect to time:

\frac{dV}{dt}=\pi  (r^2\frac{dh}{dt}+2r\frac{dr}{dt}h)

From that formula it looks like we need a value for dV/dt, r, dh/dt, and h; dr/dt is our unknown.  We have that

dV/dt = -171

dh/dt = 6

h = 6 and

V = 1254

We need a value for r.  We can find it using the last 2 values listed above in the volume formula:

1254=\pi r^2(6) and

\frac{1254}{6\pi } =r^2 and

66.52676621=r^2 and

r = 8.156394

NOW we have everything we need to fill in the derivative for the volume:

-171=66.52676621(6)\pi +6(2)(8.156394)\pi \frac{dr}{dt} which simplifies to

-171=1254+307.4888096\frac{dr}{dt} and

-1425=307.488096\frac{dr}{dt} so

\frac{dr}{dt}=-4.634 ft/sec

Find the volume of a right circular cone that has a height of 17.7 cm and a base with a diameter of 15.8 cm. Round your answer t
Lelu [443]

Answer:

1156.8cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone is given as:

V =\frac{1}{3}  \pi r^2h

where r = radius

h = height of cone

The height of the cone is 17.7 cm and its base radius is 7.9 cm (diameter is 15.8 cm).

Its volume is:

V = \frac{1}{3} * \pi = 7.9^2 * 17.7\\ \\V = 1156.8cm^3
