Basic Math

a) A cylindrical length of wire has a radius of 4 mm and alength of 10 cm. If the length is growing at a rate of 2 cm/sec andthe radius is shrinking at a rate of 1 mm/sec, what is the rate ofchange of the volume in cm3/sec at that point in time. (Be carefulof units)

b) Consider the same length of wire as before (radius of 4 mmand length of 10 cm). This time we are stretching the wire at arate of 2 cm/sec. If the total volume is not changing, what is therate of change of the radius in mm/sec at this point in time.
