Problem

Water is pumped into a vertical cylindrical tank at a rate of 5 m3 ⁣/min5\text{ m}^3\!/\text{min}. The tank has an interior radius of 2 m2\text{ m}. At the instant when the depth of the water is 3 m3\text{ m}, what is the rate at which the water level is rising? a) 54 m ⁣/min\dfrac{5}{4}\text{ m}\!/\text{min} b) 54π m ⁣/min\dfrac{5}{4\pi}\text{ m}\!/\text{min} c) 52π m ⁣/min\dfrac{5}{2\pi}\text{ m}\!/\text{min} d) 58π m ⁣/min\dfrac{5}{8\pi}\text{ m}\!/\text{min}
