$A$ water tank has the shape of an inverted right circular cone whose semi-vertical angle is $\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)$. Water is poured into it at a constant rate of $5 \text{ m}^3/\text{min}$. The rate at which the level of water is rising in $\text{m/min}$ at the instant when the depth of water in the tank is $10 \text{ m}$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{1}{5 \pi}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{15 \pi}$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{\pi}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{10 \pi}$
