| Topic | Stationary points and optimisation |
| Type | Show formula then optimise: composite/irregular shape |
| Difficulty | Standard +0.3 This is a standard optimization problem with a volume constraint requiring routine calculus techniques. Part (a) involves algebraic manipulation to derive the surface area formula (shown), part (b) requires differentiating and solving dA/dr = 0, and part (c) is simple substitution. While multi-step, it follows a well-practiced template with no novel insights required, making it slightly easier than average. |

[A sphere of radius $r$ has volume $\frac { 4 } { 3 } \pi r ^ { 3 }$ and surface area $4 \pi r ^ { 2 }$ ]\\
A manufacturer produces a storage tank.\\
The tank is modelled in the shape of a hollow circular cylinder closed at one end with a hemispherical shell at the other end as shown in Figure 9.
The walls of the tank are assumed to have negligible thickness.\\
The cylinder has radius $r$ metres and height $h$ metres and the hemisphere has radius $r$ metres.\\
The volume of the tank is $6 \mathrm {~m} ^ { 3 }$.
\begin{enumerate}[label=(\alph*)]
\item Show that, according to the model, the surface area of the tank, in $\mathrm { m } ^ { 2 }$, is given by
$$\frac { 12 } { r } + \frac { 5 } { 3 } \pi r ^ { 2 }$$
The manufacturer needs to minimise the surface area of the tank.
\item Use calculus to find the radius of the tank for which the surface area is a minimum.\\
(4)
\item Calculate the minimum surface area of the tank, giving your answer to the nearest integer.
\end{enumerate}
