$A$ ladder $5 \ m$ long is leaning against a wall. The bottom of the ladder is pulled along the ground away from the wall at the rate of $2 \ m/sec$. How fast is its height on the wall decreasing when the foot of the ladder is $4 \ m$ away from the wall?

The length $x$ of a rectangle is decreasing at the rate of $5 \text{ cm/min}$ and the width $y$ is increasing at the rate of $4 \text{ cm/min}$. When $x = 8 \text{ cm}$ and $y = 6 \text{ cm}$,find the rate of change of the perimeter.

$A$ rod of length $41 \ ft$ with an end $A$ on the floor and another end $B$ on the wall perpendicular to the floor is sliding away horizontally from the wall at the rate of $3 \ ft/min$. When the end $B$ is at a height of $9 \ ft$ from the floor, the rate at which the area of the triangle formed by the rod with the wall and the floor changes at that instant is (in $ft^2/min$):

Water is dripping out at a steady rate of $1 \text{ cm}^3/\text{sec}$ through a tiny hole at the vertex of a conical vessel,whose axis is vertical. When the slant height of water in the vessel is $4 \text{ cm}$,find the rate of decrease of the slant height,where the semi-vertical angle of the conical vessel is $\frac{\pi}{6}$.

If water is being poured at the rate of $36 \text{ } m^3/sec$ into a cylindrical vessel with a base radius of $3 \text{ } m$,then the rate at which the water level is rising is:

The volume of a cube is increasing at a rate of $9 \text{ cm}^3/\text{s}$. How fast is the surface area increasing when the length of an edge is $10 \text{ cm}$ (in $\text{ cm}^2/\text{s}$)?
