Derivatives dV/dR - dV/dt air is being pumped into a spherical weather balloon.at any time t, the volume of the balloon is v(t) and its radius is r(t). What do the derivatives dV/dr - dV/dt represent Express dV/dt in terms of dr/dt

Derivatives dV/dR - dV/dt My attempt at first question is: dV/dr : rate of change of volume with respect to radius dV/dt: rate of change of volume with respect to time 2nd part: Since then Am I right so far? Thanks

Derivatives dV/dR - dV/dt Yes, looks correct. For the second part, you could even use: $\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{dV}{dr}\cdot\frac{dr}{dt}$
