A stone is dropped into a quiet lake and waves move in circles at a speed of 3.5 cm per second. At the instant when the radius of the circular wave is 7.5 cm, how fast is the enclosed area increasing ? (Take `pi = 22//7`)

Answer» Correct Answer - `165 cm^(2)//s`
`A = pi r^(2) rArr (dA)/(dt) = 2pir. (dr)/(dt) = (2pi r xx 3.5) = 7 pi r`
`rArr [(dA)/(dt)]_(r = 7.5) = (7pi xx 7.5) cm^(2)//s = 165 cm^(2)//s`
