Ex 6.1, 13 A balloon, which always remains spherical, has a variable diameter 3/2 (2š„ +1). Find the rate of change of its volume with respect to š„.Let d be the diameter of the balloon Given that Diameter = d = 3/2 (2x + 1) Let r be the radius of the balloon r = š/2 = š/š (2x + 1) The balloon is a spherical Volume of the balloon = 4/3 šš^3 We need to find rate of change of volume with respect to x i.e. šš/šš„ Now, šš/šš„ = š/šš„ (4/3 šš^3 ) = 4š/3 Ć (šš^3)/šš„ = 4š/3 Ć š/šš„ (27/64 (2š„+1)^3 ) = 9š/16 Ć (š(2š„ + 1)^3)/šš„ = 9š/16 Ć 3(2x + 1)2 Ć 2 = ššš /š (šš+š)^š
