Answer: the rate of the water level in the cone falling when it is 5cm from the bottom of the cone is -0.1768 cm/sec
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data in the question;
H/h = R/r
10/5 = 6/r
r 1 = 30/10 = 3
Also
10/h = 6/r
r2 = 6h/10 = 3/5 × h
Volume = 1/3πr²h
V = 1/3 × π × (3/5 × h)² × h
V = 1/3 × π × 9/25 × h³
V = 3π/25 × h³
Now
dv/dt = 3π/25 × 3 × h² × dh/dt
-5 = 3π/25 × 3 × 25 × dh/dt
-5 = 3π × 3 × dh/dt
-5 = 9π × dh/dt
dh/dt = -5/9π
dh/dt = -0.1768 cm/sec
therefore, the rate of the water level in the cone falling when it is 5cm from the bottom of the cone is -0.1768 cm/sec
