A.
0.75cm2S-1
-
B.
0.53cm2S-1
-
C.
0.35cm2S-1
-
D.
0.88cm2S-1
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation
A = \(\pi\)r
2, \(\frac{\delta A}{\delta r}\) = 2πr
So, using \(\frac{\delta A}{\delta t}\) = \(\frac {\delta A}{\delta r}\) x \(\frac {\delta A}{\delta t}\)
= 2\(\pi\)r x 0.02
= 2\(\pi\) x 7 x 0.02
= 2 x \(\frac{22}{7}\) x 0.02
= 0.88cm
