Water-level changes $A$ conical tank with radius $0.50 \mathrm{m}$ and height $2.00 \mathrm{m}$ is filled with water (see figure). Water is released from the tank, and the water level drops by $0.05 \mathrm{m}$ (from $2.00 \mathrm{m}$ to $1.95 \mathrm{m}$ ). Approximate the change in the volume of water in the tank. (Hint: When the water level drops, both the radius and height of the cone of water change.) (FIGURE CAN'T COPY)

An inverted conical water tank with a volume of 0.5 million and a radius of 3 meters is drained through the vertex. Find the minimum change of the water level when the water is 3.7 meters deep. Use similar triangles. Round your answer to two decimal places. The rate of change of the water level is 34 mls.
The conical tank shown in Fig. $3.2 .5$ has radius $160 \mathrm{~cm}$ and height $800 \mathrm{~cm}$. Water is running out of a small hole in the bottom of the tank. When the height $h$ of water in the tank is $600 \mathrm{~cm}$, what is the rate of change of its volume $V$ with respect to $h ?$
