The radius of a circle is increasing at the rate of 0.7 cm/s. What is the rate of increase of its circumference?
We know that circumference of a circle (C) is C = 2πr
Then, Rate of change of circumference with respect to time (t) is given by,
……………….. by chain rule
It is given that
![]()
Then, ![]()
Therefore, the rate of increase of its circumference is 1.4π cm/s.
