PROBLEM 1: BALLOON
Joina only have 1 balloon
in hand for her physics
project. She is tasked to
determine the rate change
of the radius of a sphere
at the point in time when
the radius is 8 feet and
the volume rate is
increasing at 4π
feet3/sec.
 GIVEN:

SOLU r = 8 ft

PROBLEM 1: POOL
Jay and his friends wants to
have a pool party. The radius
of the water is increasing in
a rate of 1 feet/minute and
the height is also increasing
in the rate of 2feet/minute.
With a diameter of 10 feet
wide and 5 feet high, what
would be the rate of the
changing of volume of the
water in an instant?

PROBLEM 4: COLECTOR
A boy was walking but then
saw his collector which
reminds him of his debts.
He then walk 20 meters east
away from the intersection
in a rate of 30mph. His
collector is 10 meters
north and is waking at
15mph. In an instant, how
fast is the boy running
away from his debts?
 GIVEN:

20 METERS

MODEL: x2 + y2 = z2 SOLVE: 2x dx + 2y dy = 2z dz
dt dt dt
FIND Z: (20)2 + (10)2 = z2 2(20)(30) + 2(10)(15) = 2(22.36) dz FINAL ANSWER:
dt
400 + 100 = z2 dz
dz = 8.27
70 + 300 = 44.72 dt
dt
√500 = √z2
CONCLUSION:
22.36 = z 370 = 44.72 dz The rate of the boy running
dt away from his debts is 8.27 mph.
