C4 June 2014 Q4: Water is flowing into a vase. When the depth of water is h cm, the volume of water V cm^3 is given by V=4πh(h+4). Water flows into the vase at a constant rate of 80π cm^3/s. Find the rate of change of the depth of water in cm/s, when h=6.

This question wants us to find: dh/dt . We are given: dV/dt=80π and V=4πh(h+4) . The equation to use here is: dh/dt = dh/dV x dV/dt. We know dV/dt, but still need to find dh/dV . For this, we can use the rec...

How do you differentiate y=cox(x)/sin(x)?

Since we have to differentiate a fraction, we must use the quotient rule. The quotient rule: If y = u/v, dy/dx = (v du/dx - u dv/dx)/v 2 So we must work out each of the terms u, v, du/dx and dv/dx from the q...
