This question is actually from my math class but, it is also a psychics question I think and no one in the math forum is answering me. Please help!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Water is pouring into a cylindrical tank of height 12m and diameter = 4 (r=2) at a rate of 8m^3/min. What what rate is the surface of the water rising when the height of the surface is 9m. (note: v=pi r^2 h)

OpenStudy (cj7529):

if the rate is 8 m^3 per min, you can work out the rate of rise of the water level from that by solving \[8 = \pi r^{2} h\] h will be the rise in water per min

i had 6pi as my answer

OpenStudy (cj7529):

i would have said 2/pi m^3 per min

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can u help me with another question?

OpenStudy (cj7529):

yeah ill give it a go

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okaaay, just give me a sec to type it up.
