Due Date: 15.04.25 Practice Questions CLASS: XII D

1. The radius of a circle is increasing at a rate of 3 cm/sec. At what rate is the area changing
when the radius is 5 cm?

2. A square has sides that are increasing at a rate of 2 cm/min. At what rate is the area
changing when the side length is 12 cm?

3. Water is being pumped into a spherical balloon at a rate of 20π cm3 /sec. How fast is the
radius of the balloon increasing when the radius is 10 cm?

4. The side length of an equilateral triangle is increasing at a rate of 4 cm/min. At what rate
is the area changing when the side length is 10 cm?

5. A cylindrical water tank with radius 4 m is being filled with water at a rate of 9π m3 /min.
How fast is the water level rising?

6. The volume of a cube is increasing at a rate of 108 cm3 /sec. How fast is the side length
changing when the side length is 6 cm?

7. Sand is being poured from a conveyor belt at a rate of 10π m3 /min, forming a conical pile
whose height is always equal to the radius of the base. At what rate is the height of the
pile increasing when the height is 5 m?

8. A spherical balloon is being inflated so that its radius increases at a rate of 2 cm/sec. How
fast is the volume increasing when the radius is 7 cm?

9. The length of a rectangle is increasing at a rate of 3 cm/sec while its width is increasing
at a rate of 1 cm/sec. At what rate is the area changing when the length is 8 cm and the
width is 5 cm?

10. Air is being pumped out of a spherical balloon at a rate of 9π cm3 /min. How fast is the
radius decreasing when the radius is 3 cm?

11. A kite in the shape of a square with a diagonal of length d is formed by connecting the
ends of two perpendicular rods. If the length of one rod is increasing at 2 cm/sec while the
other is decreasing at 1 cm/sec, at what rate is the area of the kite changing when both
rods are 20 cm long?

12. The total cost function for a product is C(x) = 0.1x2 + 15x + 1000, where x is the number of
units produced. If production is increasing at a rate of 20 units per day when x = 100, at
what rate is the total cost changing?

13. Oil spilled from a tanker forms a circular slick on the surface of the ocean. If the area of
the slick is increasing at a constant rate of 6π m2 /min, how fast is the radius increasing
when the radius is 4 m?

14. A conical water tank with vertex down has a height that is three times the radius of the
base. If water is being pumped into the tank at a rate of 12π m3 /min, how fast is the height
of the water rising when the height is 6 m?

15. The total revenue function is given by R(x) = 180x – 0.2x2 , where x is the number of units
sold. If sales are decreasing at a rate of 15 units per week when x = 250, at what rate is
the revenue changing?
