Solution

The correct option is B


If V be the volume of liquid in the cylinder, at a height h of the water level, then V=πr2h
Differentiating both sides w.r.t time t, we get
dVdt=πr2 dhdt Q=πr2dhdt or dhdt=Qπr2
Note that dVdt represents the rate at which the volume of liquid in the cylinder increases, which is same as the rate of pouring of water through the tap.
