$A$ water tank has the shape of an inverted right circular cone with its axis vertical and vertex lowermost. Its semi-vertical angle is $\tan ^{-1}(0.5)$. Water is poured into it at a constant rate of $5 \ m^3/h$. Find the rate at which the level of the water is rising at the instant when the depth of the water in the tank is $4 \ m$.

  • A
    $\frac{5}{4\pi} \ m/h$
  • B
    $\frac{35}{88} \ m/h$
  • C
    $\frac{5}{2\pi} \ m/h$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{4\pi} \ m/h$
