उत्तर

Let x be the length of the cube

∴ Volume of the cube V = x3   ......(1)

Given that `"dV"/"dt"` = K

Differentiating Equation (1) w.r.t. t, we get

`"dV"/"dt" = 3x^2 * "dx"/"dt"` = K  .....(constant)

∴ `"dx"/"dt" = "K"/(3x^2)`

Now surface area of the cube, S = 6x2

Differentiating both sides w.r.t. t, we get

`"ds"/"dt" = 6 * 2 * x * "dx"/"dt"`

= `12x * "K"/(3x^2)`

⇒ `"ds"/"dt" = (4"K")/x`

⇒ `"ds"/"dt" oo 1/x`   .....(4K = constant)

Hence, the surface area of the cube varies inversely as the length of the side.
