उत्तर
Let x be the radius of base, h be the height and S be the surface area of the closed right circular cylinder whose volume is V which is given to be constant.
Then `pir^2h` = V
∴ h = `"V"/(pir^2) = "A"/x^2`, ...(1)
where A = `"V"/(pir^2)`, which is constant.
Now, S = 2πxh + 2πx2
= `2pix ("A"/x^2) + 2pix^2` ...[By (1)]
= `(2pi"A")/x + 2pix^2`
∴ `"dS"/dx = d/dx((2pi"A")/x + 2pix^2)`
= `2pi"A"(- 1)x^-2 + 2pi xx 2x`
= `(-2pi"A")/x^2 + 4pix`
and
`(d^2S)/(dx^2) = d/dx((-2pi"A")/x^2 + 4pix)`
= `-2pi"A"(-2)x^-3 + 4pi xx 1`
= `(4pi"A")/x^3 + 4pi`
Now, `"dS"/dx = 0 "gives" (-2pi"A")/x^2 + 4pix`= 0
∴ `-2pi + 4pix^3` = 0
∴ `4pixx^3 = 2pi"A"`
∴ x3 = `"A"/(2)`
∴ x = `("A"/2)^(1/3)`
and
`((d^2S)/(dx^2))_("at" x = ("A"/2)^(1/3)`
= `(4pi"A")/(("A"/2)) + 4pi`
= 12π > 0
∴ by the second derivative test, S is minimum when x = `("A"/2)^(1/3)`
When x = `("A"/2)^(1/3)`, from (1),
h = `"A"/(("A"/2)^(2/3)`
= `2^(2/3)."A"^(1/3)`
= `2.("A"/2)^(1/3)`
∴ h = 2x
Hence, the surface area is least when height of the closed right circular cylinder is equal to its diameter.

The rectangle has area of 50 cm2. Complete the following activity to find its dimensions for least perimeter.
Solution: Let x cm and y cm be the length and breadth of a rectangle.
Then its area is xy = 50
∴ `y =50/x`
Perimeter of rectangle `=2(x+y)=2(x+50/x)`
Let f(x) `=2(x+50/x)`
Then f'(x) = `square` and f''(x) = `square`
Now,f'(x) = 0, if x = `square`
But x is not negative.
∴ `x = root(5)(2) "and" f^('')(root(5)(2))=square>0`
∴ by the second derivative test f is minimum at x = `root(5)(2)`
When x = `root(5)(2),y=50/root(5)(2)=root(5)(2)`
∴ `x=root(5)(2) "cm" , y = root(5)(2) "cm"`
Hence, rectangle is a square of side `root(5)(2) "cm"`
