A paper cup in the shape of a cone with height 5 cm and radius 3 cm with the point of the cone at the bottom. A small leak develops in the cup causing water to leak out at a rate of 0.1 cm3/s. Find the rate at which the height of the water in the cup changes when the depth of the water is 2 cm. Recall that the volume of a cone is v=1/3(pi)(r2)h

A cylinder shaped can needs to be constructed to hold 400 cubic centimeters of soup. The material for the sides of the can costs 0.04 cents per square centimeter. The material for the top and bottom of the can need to be thicker, and costs 0.05 cents per square centimeter. Find the dimensions for the can that will minimize production cost. Helpful information: h : height of can, r : radius of can Volume of a cylinder: V=πr2^h Area of...

1. Suppose that you are standing on the ground, under the flight path of an airplane. The airplane is flying at an altitude of 10 km. Using a radar device, you are able to detect that the plane is currently 26 km away from you, and that its distance to you is currently shrinking at a rate of 840 kilometers per hour. What is the current speed of the airplane? Hint: use the Pythagorean theorem to express a relationship between...
