Class 12 Maths · Applications Of Derivatives · Short Answer #47

A cube volume increases at 9 cm³/s. Find the rate of increase of surface area when its edge is 10 cm.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: 3.6 cm²/s
  1. For edge x, V=x³ and S=6x².
  2. V̇=3x²ẋ=9 gives ẋ=3/x². Thus Ṡ=12x ẋ=36/x.
  3. At x=10, Ṡ=3.6 cm²/s.

📋 CBSE Stepwise Marking Scheme

  • [0.5 marks] For edge x, V=x³ and S=6x².
  • [1 mark] V̇=3x²ẋ=9 gives ẋ=3/x². Thus Ṡ=12x ẋ=36/x.
  • [0.5 marks] At x=10, Ṡ=3.6 cm²/s.
