Question: How do I solve this problem: Water is filling at a rate of 64pi cu. in. per second into a conical tank (with vertex down)

How do I solve this problem:

Water is filling at a rate of 64pi cu. in. per second into a conical tank (with vertex down) that has a diameter of 36 inches at its base and whose height is 60 inches. How do I find how fast the height of the water increasing in the tank is when the radius is 10 inches?

Hint: Volume of a cone = 1/3 pi*r2*h
