When flying home for the holidays, Eva often flies between Denver International Airport (DLA) and Chicago O'Hare (ORD). Suppose Eva's plane takes off from DIA and 50 miles from ORD the plane has to circle the airport because of snow. The plane circles ORD four times and then lands.

(a) Draw a graph depicting the distance from DIA to Eva's plane as a function of time.

(b) Draw a graph depicting the distance from ORD to Eva's plane as a function of time.

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) graph depicting the distance from DIA to Eva's plane as a function of time is following.

(b) graph depicting the distance from ORD to Eva's plane as a function of time is following.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information. 

Eva’s plane takes off from DIA and the plane circles ORD four times from 50miles before landing at ORD.

02

Step 2. Part (a)

Eva’s plane takes off from DIA so distance increases with time.

The distance from DIA to Eva’s plane isD=f(t).

03

Step 2. Part (b) 

Eva's plane circles ORD four times from 50miles before landing at ORD.

The distance from ORD to Eva’s plane is following.

D=-f(t)+4(2Ï€°ù)D=-f(t)+4(2π·50)D=-f(t)+400Ï€

Prove this using

a) definition of the derivative

b) by using the quotient rule

Every morning Linda takes a thirty-minute jog in Central Park. Suppose her distance s in feet from the oak tree on the north side of the park tminutes after she begins her jog is given by the function s(t)shown that follows at the left, and suppose she jogs on a straight path leading into the park from the oak tree.

(a) What was the average rate of change of Linda’s distance from the oak tree over the entire thirty-minute jog? What does this mean in real-world terms?

(b) On which ten-minute interval was the average rate of change of Linda’s distance from the oak tree the greatest: the first 10minutes, the second 10minutes, or the last10minutes?

(c) Use the graph of s(t)to estimate Linda’s average velocity during the 5-minute interval fromt=5tot=10. What does the sign of this average velocity tell you in real-world terms?

(d) Approximate the times at which Linda’s (instantaneous) velocity was equal to zero. What is the physical significance of these times?

(e) Approximate the time intervals during Linda’s jog that her (instantaneous) velocity was negative. What does a negative velocity mean in terms of this physical example?

Use the definition of the derivative to prove the following special case of the product rule

ddx(x2f(x))=2xf(x)+x2f'(x)
