Sand is being dropped onto a conical pile in such a way that the height of the pile is always twice the base radius.

Sand is being dropped onto a conical pile in such a way that the height of the pile is always twice the base radius.what is the rate of change of the volume of the pile with respect to the radius when the radius of the pile is 12 inches?





We Know that, `"dV"/"dr"`

V = (`1/3`) pi `"r"^2` (2r) = (`2/3`) pi `"r"^3`

`"dV"/"dr"` = (`2/3`)pi `\times` 3 `"r"^2`

= 2 pi `"r"^2`

when r = 12

`"dV"/"dr"` = 288 pi

Thus, 288 is the rate of change of the volume of the pile with respect to the radius when the radius of the pile is 12 inches.
