उत्तर

Ball of salt is spherical

∴ Volume of ball, V = `4/3  pi"r"^3`

Where r = radius of the ball

As per the question, `"dV"/"dt" oo  "S"`

Where S = surface area of the ball

⇒ `"d"/"dt" (4/3 pi"r"^3) oo  4pi"r"^2`   .....[∵ S = 4πr2]

⇒ `4/3 pi * 3"r"^2 * "dr"/"dt" oo  4pi"r"^2`

⇒ `4pi"r"^2 * "dr"/"dt" = "K" * 4pi"r"^2`  ......(K = Constant of proportionality)

⇒ `"dr"/"dt" = "K" * 4pi"r"^2`

∴ `"dr"/"dt" = "K" * 1` = K

Hence, the radius of the ball is decreasing at constant rate.
