                    If the surface area of a sphere of radius r is increasing uniformly at the rate \[8{{\operatorname{cm}}^{2}}/s,\]then the rate of change of its volume is:                   JEE Main Online Paper (Held On 09 April 2013)

    A)                 constant                                             

    B)                 proportional to \[\sqrt{r}\]                

    C)                 proportional to \[{{r}^{2}}\]                

    D)                 proportional to \[r\]                

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    Surface area, \[S=4\pi {{r}^{2}}\]                 \[\frac{ds}{dt}=8\,\pi \,r\,\frac{dr}{dt}\,\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,8\pi r\frac{dr}{dt}=8\] \[\left\{ \frac{ds}{dt}=8\,c{{m}^{2}}/s \right\}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{dr}{dt}=\frac{1}{\pi r}\]                 Now, \[v=\frac{4\pi {{r}^{3}}}{3}\Rightarrow \,\frac{dv}{dt}=4\pi {{r}^{2}}\frac{dr}{dt}=4\pi {{r}^{2}}.\frac{1}{\pi r}=4r\] \[\therefore \]  \[\frac{dv}{dt}\propto r\]
