Find the rate of change of the area of a circle with respect to its radius r when
(a) r = 3 cm (b) r = 4 cm
Let A be area of circle of radius r![]()
Rate of change of area with respect to ![]()
![]()
(a) When r = 3, rate of change of area = 2
× 3 = 6 cm2/cm.
(b) When r = 4, rate of change of area = 2
× 4 = 8
cm2/cm.
Find the rate of change of the volume of a ball with respect to its radius r. How fast is the volume changing with respect to the radius when the radius is 2 m?
