Consider a container of the shape obtained by revolving a segment of parabola $x = 1 + y^2$ around the $y$-axis as shown below. The container is initially empty. Water is poured at a constant rate of $1\, \text{cm}^3$ into the container. Let $h(t)$ be the height of water inside container at time $t$. Find the time $t$ when the rate of change of $h(t)$ is maximum.
