Answer:

Option c)

10π ft^2/ft

Explanation:

Area of the circular puddle = A

=
\pi r^2

Where r is the radius of the circular puddle

Since the area of the circular puddle is constantly changing with respect to radius

Therefore, the differential equation hence formed will be

=
(d(A))/(dr)

On putting the value of A

=
(d(\pi r2))/(dr)

On differentiating

= 2πr

Hence , Area= A= 2πr

Putting the value of r = 5ft

Area =
2* 5\pi ft

=
10\pi ft^2/ft
