Class: 12 Subject: Math Topic: Rate of Change

Question:

A ladder \( 5\;\text{m} \) long is leaning against a wall. The bottom of the ladder is pulled along the ground, away from the wall, at the rate of \( 2\;\text{cm}/\text{s} \). How fast is its height on the wall decreasing when the foot of the ladder is \( 4\;\text{m} \) away from the wall?
