A stone isdropped into a quiet lake and waves move in circles at the speed of 5 cm/s.At the instant when the radius of the circular wave is 8 cm, how fast is theenclosed area increasing? |

Answer» Let r be the radius and A be the area of the wave. Given `(dr)/(dt) = 5 cm//sec` Now, `A= pi r^(2)` `rArr (dA)/(dt) = 2 pi r (dr)/(dt)` at r = 8 ` (dA)/(dt)= 2pi xx 8xx5 = 80 pi cm^(2)//sec` |
