3.1 The formula to calculate the demand for power is given by d . If the demand for
power increases by more than 9%, load shedding is implemented.

3.1.1 On a cold winter’s night, the current I changes by ± 3 %, the resistance R changes
by ± 2 % and the cable diameter d changes by ± 2 %. Calculate the maximum change
in power. (4)

3.1.2 Will load shedding be implemented? Give a reason for your answer. (1)

3.2 The volume of water in a dam is determined by the formula V =2 πh (3 d−3 h ) . After a
rainfall, water is flowing into the dam resulting in an increase in the water level h at a rate
of 0.06m/hr while the diameter d of the dam is increasing at a rate of 0.25m/hr. Determine
the rate at which the volume is changing the instant when d=20m and h=6m. (4)
