Rate of change

Q1

Each edge of a variable cube is increasing at a rate of 3 cm per second. How fast is the
volume of the cube increasing when the edge is 12 cm long?

Q2

All edges of a cube are expanding at a rate of 1.5 cm per second. How fast is the surface
area changing when each edge is 8 cm?

Q3

Assume that oil spilled from a ruptured tanker spreads in a circular pattern whose radius
increases at a constant rate of 2 ft/sec. How fast is the area of the spill increasing when
the radius of spill is 60 ft?

Q4

A spherical balloon is to be deflated so that its radius decreases at a constant rate of 15

cm/min. At what rate must air be removed when the radius is 9 cm?

Q5

A spherical balloon is being filled with a gas in such a way that when the radius is 20 cm,
the radius is increasing at the rate of 2 cms-1 . How fast is the volume changing at this
time?

Q6

A 13-cm ladder is leaning against a wall. If the top of the ladder slips down the wall at a
rate of 2 cm/s, how fast will the foot be moving away from the wall when the top is 5 cm
above the ground?
