If water is poured into a cylindrical tank of radius 3.5 ft at the rate of \(1 \mathrm{cu} \mathrm{f} / \mathrm{min}\), then the rate at which the level of the water in the tank increases (in \(\mathrm{f} / \mathrm{min}\) ) is

  1. A \(\frac{1}{154}\)
  2. B \(\frac{8}{77}\)
  3. C \(\frac{2}{77}\)
  4. D \(\frac{1}{11}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{8}{77}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} V & =\pi r^2 h ; \frac{d V}{d t}=\pi r^2 \frac{d h}{d t} \\ \Rightarrow 1 & =\pi \times 3.5^2 \frac{d h}{d t} \Rightarrow \frac{d h}{d i}=\frac{7}{22} \times \frac{2 \times 2}{7 \times 7}=\frac{2}{77}\end{aligned}\)
