A stack of conical paper cups are used to collect water from a water cooler.
Each cup is in the shape of an inverted right circular cone. The cups circular
rim has a 4 cm diameter and its depth is 5 cm. A student uses the cone to
collect water. The water flows into the cup at 2 cm3 per second. After t
seconds, there is volume, V cm3, of water in the cone, the surface of the water
has radius, r cm, and the depth of the water is h cm. As the water level rises,
the distance, k cm, between the surface of the water and the rim of the cone is
decreasing.
