If the radius of the sphere increased from 10 cm10 \text{ cm} to 10.1 cm10.1 \text{ cm}, what is the approximate increase in surface area?

  1. Write down the formula for the surface area of a sphere and its derivative.

    The surface area of a sphere is given by A=4πr2A = 4\pi r^2.
    To find the approximate change in surface area, we use differentials: dA=dAdr⋅ΔrdA = \frac{dA}{dr} \cdot \Delta r.
    First, find the derivative of AA with respect to rr:

    dAdr=ddr(4πr2)=8πr\frac{dA}{dr} = \frac{d}{dr}(4\pi r^2) = 8\pi r
  2. Identify the given values for rr and Δr\Delta r.

    The initial radius is r=10 cmr = 10 \text{ cm}.
    The change in radius is Δr=10.1 cm−10 cm=0.1 cm\Delta r = 10.1 \text{ cm} - 10 \text{ cm} = 0.1 \text{ cm}.

  3. Substitute the values into the differential formula and calculate dAdA.

    dA=(8πr)⋅ΔrdA = (8\pi r) \cdot \Delta r dA=(8π⋅10 cm)⋅(0.1 cm)dA = (8\pi \cdot 10 \text{ cm}) \cdot (0.1 \text{ cm}) dA=80π⋅0.1 cm2dA = 80\pi \cdot 0.1 \text{ cm}^2 dA=8π cm2dA = 8\pi \text{ cm}^2

    The approximate increase in surface area is 8π cm2\boxed{8\pi \text{ cm}^2}.

The height of a cylinder is 10 cm10 \text{ cm} and its radius is 4 cm4 \text{ cm}. Find the approximate increase in volume when the radius increases to 4.02 cm4.02 \text{ cm}.

  1. Write down the formula for the volume of a cylinder and its derivative with respect to rr.

    The volume of a cylinder is given by V=πr2hV = \pi r^2 h.
    To find the approximate change in volume, we use differentials: dV=dVdr⋅ΔrdV = \frac{dV}{dr} \cdot \Delta r.
    First, find the derivative of VV with respect to rr, treating hh as a constant:

    dVdr=ddr(πr2h)=2πrh\frac{dV}{dr} = \frac{d}{dr}(\pi r^2 h) = 2\pi r h
  2. Identify the given values for hh, rr, and Δr\Delta r.

    The height is h=10 cmh = 10 \text{ cm}.
    The initial radius is r=4 cmr = 4 \text{ cm}.
    The change in radius is Δr=4.02 cm−4 cm=0.02 cm\Delta r = 4.02 \text{ cm} - 4 \text{ cm} = 0.02 \text{ cm}.

  3. Substitute the values into the differential formula and calculate dVdV.

    dV=(2πrh)⋅ΔrdV = (2\pi r h) \cdot \Delta r dV=(2π⋅4 cm⋅10 cm)⋅(0.02 cm)dV = (2\pi \cdot 4 \text{ cm} \cdot 10 \text{ cm}) \cdot (0.02 \text{ cm}) dV=(80π cm2)⋅(0.02 cm)dV = (80\pi \text{ cm}^2) \cdot (0.02 \text{ cm}) dV=1.6π cm3dV = 1.6\pi \text{ cm}^3

    The approximate increase in volume is 1.6π cm3\boxed{1.6\pi \text{ cm}^3}.
