Problem

The radius of a spherical balloon is increasing at 3 cm s−13\,\text{cm s}^{-1} when the radius is 10 cm10\,\text{cm}. What is the rate at which its volume is increasing at that instant? (a) 2400π cm3s−12400\pi\,\text{cm}^{3}\text{s}^{-1} (b) 1200π cm3s−11200\pi\,\text{cm}^{3}\text{s}^{-1} (c) 400π cm3s−1400\pi\,\text{cm}^{3}\text{s}^{-1} (d) 900π cm3s−1900\pi\,\text{cm}^{3}\text{s}^{-1}
