The radius of a right circular cone is increasing at a rate of 2 inches per second and its height is decreasing at a rate of 2 inches per second. At what rate is the volume of the cone changing when the radius is 40 inches and the height is 20 inches? NOTE: The volume of a cone with base radius r and height h is given by V=13πr2h.

Answer:

Rate of change of volume when the radius is 40 inches and the height is 20 inches = 0 inch³/s

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

         [tex]\texttt{Volume = }\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h[/tex]

Taking derivative with respect to time,

         [tex]V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h\\\\\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{3}\pi \frac{d}{dt}\left (r^2h \right )\\\\\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{3}\pi \left ( 2r\frac{dr}{dt}\times h+r^2\frac{dh}{dt}\right)[/tex]

Given that

          r = 40 inches

          h = 20 inches

         [tex]\frac{dr}{dt}=2inch/s\\\\\frac{dh}{dt}=-2inch/s[/tex]

Substituting

        [tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{3}\pi \left ( 2r\frac{dr}{dt}\times h+r^2\frac{dh}{dt}\right)\\\\\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{3}\pi \left ( 2\times 40\times 2\times 20+40^2\times (-2)\right)\\\\\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{3}\pi \left (3200-3200\right)=0inch^3/s[/tex]

Rate of change of volume when the radius is 40 inches and the height is 20 inches = 0 inch³/s

The rate at which the volume of the cone is changing when the radius is 40 inches and the height is 20 inches is 0.

What is the rate of change mathematically?

Mathematically, the derivative of a function at a point is the rate of change.

The volume of a cone is given by:

[tex]V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h[/tex] where r is the radius of cone and h is the height of the cone.

So, [tex]\frac{dV}{dt} =\frac{1}{3} \pi (r^{2} \frac{dh}{dt} +2rh\frac{dr}{dt} )[/tex]

It is given that

[tex]\frac{dr}{dt} = 2\\\\\frac{dh}{dt} =-2[/tex]

So, when r=40, h= 20

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} =\frac{1}{3}\pi (40^{2} *(-2)+2*40*20*2)[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} =0[/tex]

Therefore, the rate at which the volume of the cone is changing when the radius is 40 inches and the height is 20 inches is 0.
