Options for question 11

Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer D

Correct answer: D

Explanation

  1. V=43πr3V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3, so dVdt=4πr2drdt\frac{dV}{dt} = 4\pi r^2\frac{dr}{dt}.

  2. 4π×9×1=36π4\pi \times 9 \times 1 = 36\pi cm³/s.

Worth noting

12π12\pi is 4πr4\pi r: the radius must be squared.
