$A$ stone,thrown vertically upward from the surface of the moon at a velocity of $24 \ m/s$,reaches a height of $s = 24t - 0.8t^2$ meters after $t$ seconds. The acceleration due to gravity in $m/s^2$ at the surface of the moon is:

At present,a firm is manufacturing $2000$ items. It is estimated that the rate of change of production $P$ with respect to the additional number of workers $x$ is given by $\frac{dP}{dx} = 100 - 12\sqrt{x}$. If the firm employs $25$ more workers,then the new level of production of items is:

The height of a right circular cylinder is decreasing while its diameter is increasing at a rate of $4 \text{ cm/s}$ so as to keep its volume unchanged. The rate of change in its lateral surface area (in $\text{cm}^2/\text{s}$) at the instant when its diameter is $8 \text{ cm}$ and height is $12 \text{ cm}$,is (in $\pi$)

The rate of change of the area of a sphere with respect to its radius, when the radius is $6 \text{ cm}$, is . . . . . . . (in $\pi$)

$A$ container is in the shape of an inverted cone. Its height is $6 \ m$ and the radius at the top is $4 \ m$. If it is filled with water at the rate of $3 \ m^3/min$,then the rate of change of the height of the water (in $m/min$) when the water level is $3 \ m$,is

$A$ spherical iron ball of $10 \ cm$ radius is coated with a layer of ice of uniform thickness that melts at a rate of $50 \ cm^3/min$. When the thickness of ice is $5 \ cm$,then the rate (in $cm/min$) at which the thickness of ice decreases is:
