We need to find the value of \frac{dV}{dr}  at r =10 cm
The volume of the sphere (V) = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}
\frac{dV}{dr} = \frac{d(\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3})}{dr} = \frac{4}{3}\pi \times 3r^{2} = 4\pi r^{2} = 4\pi (10)^{2} = 4\pi \times 100 = 400\pi \ cm^{3}/s
Hence,  the rate at which its volume is increasing with the radius when the later is 10 cm is 400\pi \ cm^{3}/s
