Signs of rates of change when filling a spherical tank. Water is flowing into a large spherical tank at a constant rate. Let $V\left(t\right)$ be the volume of water in the tank at time $t$, and $h\left(t\right)$ of the water level at time $t$. 
Is $\frac{dV}{dt}$ positive, negative, or zero when the tank is one quarter full? 
Is $\frac{dh}{dt}$ positive, negative, or zero when the tank is one quarter full? 
My answer
I believe that the rate of change of the volume is increasing till 1/2 full, then decreasing. 
I believe that the rate of change of the height is decreasing till 1/2 full, then increasing. 
THis is because of the widest part of the sphere is when h = r (the radius of the sphere), and if you think of it as many slices of circles upon each other, then the area change would follow the patter of each slice. 
Am I correct? 

Uncookedfalcon is correct. You're adding water, which means that both the volume and water depth are increasing (that is, $\frac{dV}{dt}$ and $\frac{dh}{dt}$ are positive) until it's full. In fact, $\frac{dV}{dt}$ is constant until it's full.
