Water is being poured at the rate of $36 \mathrm{~m}^3 / \mathrm{min}$. into a cylindrical vessel, whose circular base is of radius $3 \mathrm{~m}$. then the water level in the cylinder is rising at the rate of
  1. $\frac{4}{\pi} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{min}$
  2. $4 \pi \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{min}$
  3. $\frac{1}{4 \pi} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{min}$
  4. $\frac{2}{\pi} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{min}$

Solution

Volume of cylinder $=\pi \mathrm{r}^2 \mathrm{~h}$ $\begin{aligned} & \therefore \frac{\mathrm{dv}}{\mathrm{dt}}=\pi \mathrm{r}^2 \frac{\mathrm{dh}}{\mathrm{dt}} \\ & \therefore 36=\pi(3)^2 \frac{\mathrm{dh}}{\mathrm{dt}} \Rightarrow \frac{\mathrm{dh}}{\mathrm{dt}}=\frac{4}{\pi} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{min} \end{aligned}$
