NCERT Class 12 Maths · Chapter 6 Applications Of Derivatives · Miscellaneous Exercise Question 16

A cylindrical tank of radius 10 m receives wheat at 314 m³/h. Find the depth rate.

💡 Concept Hints

  1. Identify the domain and the inner and outer functions, or the relevant one-sided limits.
  2. Apply the appropriate differentiation or limit rule, keep all chain factors, and check exceptional points.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: A: approximately 1 m/h (using π≈3.14); exact rate 3.14/π m/h.
  1. With fixed radius, V=100πh, so Vₜ=100πhₜ.
  2. Therefore hₜ=314/(100π)=3.14/π≈0.99949 m/h. Using the textbook approximation π=3.14 gives 1 m/h, option A.
