Ex 6.1, 14 Sand is pouring from a pipe at the rate of 12 cm3/s. The falling sand forms a cone on the ground in such a way that the height of the cone is always one-sixth of the radius of the base. How fast is the height of the sand cone increasing when the height is 4 cm? Given that sand is pouring from a pipe & falling sand forms a cone Let š’“ be the radius & š’‰ be height of the sand cone & V be the volume of cone Also, Sand is pouring from a pipe at the rate of 12š‘š‘š^3/sec i.e. Rate of volume of a cone w.r.t time is 12š‘š‘š^3/sec i.e. š’…š‘½/š’…š’• ="12" š’„š’Ž^šŸ‘ "/sec" We need to find how fast height of the Cone is increasing when height is 4cm i.e. find š’…š’‰/š’…š’• when š’‰=šŸ’š’„š’Ž Given that sand forms cone on the ground in such a way that the height of the cone is always one sixth of the radius i.e. ā„Ž=1/6 š‘Ÿ 6ā„Ž=š‘Ÿ š’“=šŸ”š’‰ We know that Volume of a cone = 1/3 šœ‹(š‘Ÿ^2 )ā„Ž V = 1/3 π〖 š’“ć€—^2 ā„Ž V = 1/3 Ļ€ (šŸ”š’‰)^2 ā„Ž V = 1/3 Ļ€ Ɨ 36ā„Ž^2 Ć—ā„Ž V = 1/3 Ļ€ Ɨ 36 ā„Ž^3 V = 12Ļ€ š’‰^šŸ‘ (ā–ˆ("From (2)" : š‘Ÿ" = 6" ā„Ž)) Differentiating w.r.t š‘” š‘‘š‘‰/š‘‘š‘”=š‘‘(12šœ‹ā„Ž^3 )/š‘‘š‘” š‘‘š‘‰/š‘‘š‘”=12šœ‹ š‘‘(ā„Ž^3 )/š‘‘š‘” š‘‘š‘‰/š‘‘š‘”=12šœ‹ Ć—š‘‘(ā„Ž^3 )/š‘‘š‘” Ɨ š‘‘ā„Ž/š‘‘ā„Ž š‘‘š‘‰/š‘‘š‘”=12šœ‹ Ć—š’…(š’‰^šŸ‘ )/š’…š’‰ Ɨ š‘‘ā„Ž/š‘‘š‘” š’…š‘½/š’…š’•=12šœ‹ Ɨ 3ā„Ž^2 Ɨ š‘‘ā„Ž/š‘‘š‘” šŸšŸ=12šœ‹ Ɨ 3ā„Ž^2 Ɨ š‘‘ā„Ž/š‘‘š‘” 12/(12šœ‹ Ɨ 3ā„Ž^2 )=š‘‘ā„Ž/š‘‘š‘” š’…š’‰/š’…š’•=šŸ/(šŸ‘š…š’‰^šŸ ) (From (1): š’…š‘½/š’…š’• ="12" ) Putting ā„Ž = 4 cm š‘‘ā„Ž/š‘‘š‘”= 1/(3šœ‹ Ɨ (4)^2 ) š‘‘ā„Ž/š‘‘š‘” =1/48šœ‹ Since height is in cm & time is in sec ∓ š’…š’‰/š’…š’•=šŸ/šŸ’šŸ–š… cm/s Hence, Height of the sand cone is increasing at the rate of šŸ/šŸ’šŸ–š… cm/s
