Problema 3.95c

Capitolo 3, Problema 3.95c

Right circular cylinder The total surface area S of a right circular cylinder is related to the base radius r and height h by the equation S = 2πr² + 2πrh.

c. How is dS/dt related to dr/dt and dh/dt if neither r nor h is constant?

Guida verificata passo dopo passo

Start by identifying the given equation for the total surface area of the cylinder: \( S = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rh \).

Recognize that \( S \), \( r \), and \( h \) are all functions of time \( t \), so we need to use implicit differentiation with respect to \( t \).

Differentiate both sides of the equation with respect to \( t \). For the first term \( 2\pi r^2 \), use the chain rule: \( \frac{d}{dt}(2\pi r^2) = 4\pi r \frac{dr}{dt} \).

For the second term \( 2\pi rh \), apply the product rule: \( \frac{d}{dt}(2\pi rh) = 2\pi \left( r \frac{dh}{dt} + h \frac{dr}{dt} \right) \).

Combine the differentiated terms to express \( \frac{dS}{dt} \) in terms of \( \frac{dr}{dt} \) and \( \frac{dh}{dt} \): \( \frac{dS}{dt} = 4\pi r \frac{dr}{dt} + 2\pi \left( r \frac{dh}{dt} + h \frac{dr}{dt} \right) \).

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Related Rates

Related rates involve finding the rate at which one quantity changes in relation to another. In this context, we are interested in how the surface area of a cylinder changes with respect to time as both the radius and height change. This concept is fundamental in calculus, as it allows us to connect different rates of change through derivatives.

Chain Rule

The chain rule is a fundamental principle in calculus used to differentiate composite functions. In the context of the given problem, it allows us to express the derivative of the surface area with respect to time as a function of the derivatives of the radius and height. This is crucial for relating the rates of change of different variables.

Surface Area of a Cylinder

The surface area of a right circular cylinder is given by the formula S = 2πr² + 2πrh, which includes contributions from both the circular bases and the lateral surface. Understanding this formula is essential for applying related rates, as it provides the relationship between the radius, height, and surface area that we need to differentiate with respect to time.
