Question

if surface area of a cube is increasing at the rate of 4 metres per second it expected to time then find rate of change of volume of cube with respect to time and side length of cube is 1 metre​

Answer 1

Answer:

ANSWER

Let x be the length of a side, V be the volume, and S be the surface area of the cube.

Then, V=x

and S=6x

It is given that

dV

=8cm

/s.

Then, by using the chain rule, we have:

∴8=
