A source tank has constant horizontal cross-sectional area \(20\text{ cm}^2\). Its water depth falls at \(0.3\text{ cm/s}\), and all the water leaving it enters a second tank.
The second tank has constant horizontal cross-sectional area \(50\text{ cm}^2\) and leaks at \(1\text{ cm}^3/\text{s}\).
Find the rate of change of water depth in the second tank.
