Answer

$ 4860 $ $\frac {cm^ {3}} {min}$

Work Step by Step

Let $V$ and $r$ denote volume and radius respectively, then: $ V=\frac {4}{3} \pi r^3$ $ \frac{dV}{dt}=\frac {d (\frac {4}{3} \pi r^3)} {dr} \frac{dr}{dt}=\frac {4}{3} \pi \frac{d(r^3)} {dr} \frac{dr}{dt}$ $ \frac{dV}{dt}= \frac {4}{3} \pi (3r^2) \frac{dr}{dt}=4\pi r^ {2} \frac{dr}{dt}$............... eq (1) Putting $\frac{dr}{dt}=15 \frac{cm}{min}$ $r=9 cm$ in equation (1) $ \frac{dV}{dt}=4\pi (9^ {2}) \times 15=4860$ $\frac {cm^ {2}} {min}$
