    This document describes a calculator technique for solving volume flow rate problems in calculus using specific CASIO calculator models. It provides an example problem of water pouring into a conical tank at a rate of 2.15 cubic meters per minute and calculates how fast the water level is rising when the water stands 3.5 meters deep. The solution uses the calculator keys MODE, STAT, AC, and Shift to input equations and calculate that the rate is 0.3492 meters per minute.

    Flow Rate Problem


    Water is poured into a conical tank at the rate of 2.15 cubic meters per minute. The tank is 8 meters
    in diameter across the top and 10 meters high. How fast the water level rising when the water stands
    3.5 meters deep.

    Traditional Solution

    Volume of water inside the tank

    Differentiate both sides with respect to time


    When h = 3.5 m

    answer

    MODE → 3:STAT → 3:_+cX2

    X Y
    0 0
    10 π42
    5 π22
    AC → 2.15 ÷ 3.5y-caret = 0.3492 answer

    To input the 3.5y-caret above, do


    3.5 → SHIFT → 1[STAT] → 7:Reg → 6:y-caret

    What we just did was actually v = Q / A which is the equivalent of for this problem.

    Problem
    Water is being poured into a hemispherical bowl of radius 6 inches at the rate of x cubic inches per
    second. Find x if the water level is rising at 0.1273 inch per second when it is 2 inches deep?

    Traditional Solution
    Volume of water inside the bowl

    Differentiate both sides with respect to time

    When h = 2 inches, dh/dt = 0.1273 inch/sec


    answer

    Calculator Technique
    MODE → 3:STAT → 3:_+cX2

    X Y
    0 0
    6 π62
    12 0
    AC → 0.1273 × 2y-caret = 7.9985 answer

    I hope you enjoy this post. Next time you solve problems involving flow rate, try to use this calculator
    technique to save time.
