Question:medium

The height of a cone with semi vertical angle $\pi/3$ is increasing at the rate of 2 units/min. The rate at which the radius of the cone is to be decreased so as to have a fixed volume always is

Show Hint

In related rates problems, first establish a static equation relating the geometric quantities. Then, differentiate this equation with respect to time, treating all variables as functions of time. Finally, substitute the given instantaneous values and rates to find the unknown rate.
