In Calm Waters, the Oil Spilling from the Ruptured Hull $20 \mathrm { ft }$

question 73

Short Answer

In calm waters, the oil spilling from the ruptured hull of a grounded tanker spreads in all directions. Assuming that the polluted area is circular, determine how fast the area is increasing when the radius of the circle is $20 \mathrm { ft }$ and is increasing at the rate of $\frac { 1 } { 6 } \mathrm { ft } / \mathrm { sec }$ . Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.
