V = t dV/dt
After 2 minutes
V= 120(5) = 600 ft3
V = (4/3)πr3 --> r = ((3/(4π))V)1/3 =(1800/(4π))1/3 ≈ 5.23 ft
dV/dt = 4πr2 dr/dt
dr/dt = (dV/dt)/(4πr2) = 5/((4π)5.232) ≈ 0.0145 ft/min

asked 09/29/21Helium is pumped into a spherical balloon at a rate of 5 cubic feet per second. How fast is the radius increasing after 2 minutes?Note: The volume of a sphere is given by V = (4/3)pi*r^3
