A water tank has the shape of an inverted

circular cone with radius 2 m. and height
4 m. If water is being pumped into the
tank at a rate of 2 m3/min , find the rate
at which the water level is rising when the
water is 3m. deep.
Find the condition for the curves
ax2 +by2 =1, a1x2 +b1y2 = 1 to intersect
orthogonally
Show that the equations of the normal to
the curve x=acos3 , y=a sin3 at , is
