A candle of diameter \(d\) is floating on a liquid in a cylindrical container of diameter \(D(D>>d)\) as shown in the figure. If it is burning at the rate of \(2~\text{cm/hour}\) then the top of the candle will:
1. | Remain at the same height |
2. | Fall at the rate of \(1~\text{cm/hour}\) |
3. | Fall at the rate of \(2~\text{cm/hour}\) |
4. | Go up at the rate of \(1~\text{cm/hour}\) |
