from class:

AP Calculus AB/BC

Definition

Volume refers to the amount of space occupied by a three-dimensional object.

congrats on reading the definition of Volume. now let's actually learn it.

ok, let's learn stuff

The volume of a sphere is given by V = (4/3)πr^3. If the radius is increasing at a rate of 4 cm/s, what is the rate of change of the volume with respect to time when the radius is 3 cm?
A bottle and a can are both being filled with water at a varying rate. The volume of water in the bottle is twice the volume of water in the can plus 20 milliliters. At time t=3 seconds, the can is being filled at a rate of 8 mL/s. How quickly is the bottle being filled at t=3 seconds?
A drop of water in space is currently in the shape of a cylinder with radius 1 mm and height 2 mm. A piston pushes the circular faces of the drop closer together, decreasing the height at a rate of 1 mm/s. If the water stays in the shape of a cylinder and its volume does not change, at what rate is the radius of the drop increasing?
The length of a rectangular prism is increasing at a rate of 6 in/s, the width is increasing at a rate of 4 in/s, and the height is decreasing at a rate of 2 in/s. If the length is 8 in, the width is 6 in, and the height is 4 in, what is the rate of change of the volume with respect to time?
