    If a circular plate is heated uniformly, its area expands 3c times as fast as its radius, then the value of c when the radius is 6 units, is

    A) \[4\pi \]

    B) \[2\pi \]

    C) \[6\pi \]

    D) \[3\pi \]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] Let A sq. units in the area measure when the radius is r units. Their \[A=\pi {{r}^{2}}\] Differentiate both side \[w.r.t't'\frac{dA}{dt}=2\pi r\frac{dr}{dt}\] ? (i) We have, \[\frac{dA}{dt}=3c\frac{dr}{dt}\] From eqn. (i), we get \[3c.\frac{dr}{dt}=2\pi r.\frac{dr}{dt}\]                                     \[\Rightarrow 3c=2\pi r\] Now, \[c=\frac{2}{3}\pi (6)=4\pi \] when \[r=6\]
