  2. Consider a sphere of radius 10cm. The volume would change by approximately . First, a review problem: If the radius changes 0.1cm (a very small amount) how much does the volume change?

  3. The sphere is growing at a rate of . Note: This is an exact answer, not an approximation like we got with the differential problems. Now, suppose that the radius is changing at an instantaneous rate of 0.1 cm/sec. (Possible if the sphere is a soap bubble or a balloon.)

  4. Find Water is draining from a cylindrical tank of radius 3 at 3000 cm3/second. How fast is the surface dropping? (We need a formula to relate V and h. ) The water level is dropping at -1000/3π cm/sec.

  5. Steps for Related Rates Problems: 1. Draw a picture (sketch). 2. Write down known information. 3. Write down what you are looking for. 4. Write an equation to relate the variables. 5. Differentiate both sides with respect to t. 6. Evaluate.

  6. Hot Air Balloon Problem: Given: How fast is the balloon rising? Find

  7. Truck Problem: Truck A travels east at 40 mi/hr. Truck B travels north at 30 mi/hr. How fast is the distance between the trucks changing 6 minutes later? B A p

  8. y L x A 14 foot ladder is leaning against a wall. If the top of the ladder slips down the wall at a rate of 2 ft/s, how fast will the end be moving away from the wall when the top is 6 ft above the ground? 14 How fast is the area changing? The ladder is moving away at a rate of

  9. y L x A 14 foot ladder is leaning against a wall. If the top of the ladder slips down the wall at a rate of 2 ft/s, let’s now find how fast the area of the triangle is changing when the top is 6 ft above the ground? 14

  10. y x A man 6 ft tall is walking at a rate of 2 ft/s toward a street light 16 ft tall. At what rate is the size of his shadow changing? 16 6 The size of his shadow is reducing at a rate of 6/5 ft/s.

  11. x y R A boat whose deck is 10 ft below the level of a dock, is being drawn in by means of a rope attached to a pulley on the dock. When the boat is 24 ft away and approaching the dock at ½ ft/sec, how fast is the rope being pulled in? The rope is being pulled in at a rate of 6/13 ft/sec.

  12. A pebble is dropped into a still pool and sends out a circular ripple whose radius increases at a constant rate of 4 ft/s. How fast is the area of the region enclosed by the ripple increasing at the end of 8 seconds. At t = 8, r = (8)(4) = 32 The area is increasing at a rate of ft2/sec.

  13. A spherical container is deflated such that its radius decreases at a constant rate of 10 cm/min. At what rate must air be removed when the radius is 5 cm? Air must be removed at a rate of ft3/min.

  14. Sand pours into a conical pile whose height is always one half its diameter. If the height increases at a constant rate of 4 ft/min, at what rate is sand pouring from the chute when the pile is 15 ft high? The sand is pouring from the chute at a rate of ft3/min.

  15. Liquid is pouring through a cone shaped filter at a rate of 3 cubic inches per minute. Assume that the height of the cone is 12 inches and the radius of the base of the cone is 3 inches. How rapidly is the depth of the liquid in the filter decreasing when the level is 6 inches deep? 3 r 12 h The depth of the liquid is decreasing at a rate of in/sec.

  16. If and x is decreasing at the rate of 3 units per second, the rate at which y is changing when y = 2 is nearest to: a. –0.6 u/s b. –0.2 u/s c. 0.2 u/s d. 0.6 u/s e. 1.0 u/s
