Oil spilled from a tanker spreads in a circle whose circumference increases at a rate of 40 ft/sec. How fast is the area of the spill increasing when the circumference of the circle is 100π ft?

What equation(s) should be used?

What is the derivative of circumference with respect to time?

What is the derivative of area with respect to time?

What is the derivative of area with respect to time?

Water slowly evaporates from a circular shaped puddle. The area of the puddle decreases at a rate of $36\pi\ \frac{in^2}{hr}$ . Assuming the puddle retains its circular shape, at what rate is the radius of the puddle changing when the radius is 5 in?

•  $\frac{-\frac{18}{5}in}{hr}$  

•  $\frac{-\frac{17}{5}in}{hr}$  

•  $-18\ \frac{in}{hr}$  

•  $-3\ \frac{in}{hr}$  

Water leaking onto a floor forms a circular pool. The radius of the pool increases at a rate of 3 cm/min. How fast is the area of the pool increasing when the radius is 12 cm?

• $76\pi\ \frac{cm^2}{\min}$

• $72\pi\frac{cm^2}{\min}$

• $77\pi\frac{cm^2}{\min}$

• $62\pi\frac{cm^2}{\min}$

A hypothetical cube grows at a rate of  $64\ \frac{m^3}{\min}$ . How fast are the sides of the cube increasing when the sides are 8 m?
