A spherical balloon is inflated with gas at a rate of 5 cubic centimeters per minute. How fast is the radius of the balloon changing at the instant when the radius is 4 centimeters? The volume VV of a sphere with a radius rr is V=43πr

Answer :

Answer:

0.025 cm/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume rate of change is

[tex]\dfrac{dV}{dt} = 5[/tex]

We are to determine the rate of change of the radius. This is given by

[tex]\dfrac{dr}{dt}=\dfrac{dV}{dt}\div\dfrac{dV}{dr}[/tex]

The volume of a sphere is given by

[tex]V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3[/tex]

Hence,

[tex]\dfrac{dV}{dr} = 4\pi r^2[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]\dfrac{dr}{dt}=\dfrac{5}{4\pi r^2}[/tex]

When r = 4,

[tex]\dfrac{dr}{dt}=\dfrac{5}{4\pi 4^2}=\dfrac{5}{64\pi}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dr}{dt}=0.025 \text{ cm/min}[/tex]
