1. Water is flowing into a vertical cylindrical tank at the rate of 24 ft3/min.

If the radius of
the tank is 4 ft, how fast is the surface rising? (0.477 ft/min)
2. Water flows into a vertical cylindrical tank at 12 ft3/min, the surface rises 6 in/min. Find
the radius of the tank. (2.76 ft)
3. A rectangular trough is 10 ft long and 3 ft wide. Find how fast the surface rises, if water
flows in at the rate of 12 ft3/min. (0.4 ft/min)
4. A triangular trough 10 ft long is 4 ft across the top, and 4 ft deep. If water flows in at the
rate of 3 ft3/min, find how fast the surface is rising when the water is 6 in deep. (0.6
ft/min)
