Problem 2

Find two numbers whose difference is 50 and whose product is a minimum.

Problem 8

Use Newton's method to find the point of intersection of the graphs to four decimal places of accuracy by solving the equation \(f(x)-g(x)=0 .\) Use the initial estimate \(x_{0}\) for the \(x\) -coordinate. f(x)=\sin x, g(x)=\frac{1}{5} x, \quad x_{0}=2

Problem 11

Determine where the graph of the function is concave upward and where it is concave downward. Also, find all inflection points of the function. $$ f(x)=x^{3}-6 x $$

Problem 17

Determine where the graph of the function is concave upward and where it is concave downward. Also, find all inflection points of the function. $$ h(t)=\frac{1}{3} t^{2}+\frac{3}{5} t^{5 / 3} $$

Problem 17

Approximate the zero of the function in the indicated interval to six decimal places. \(f(x)=\cos x-x\) in \(\left[0, \frac{\pi}{2}\right]\)

Problem 28

Use the Mean Value Theorem to prove that \(|\sin a-\sin b| \leq|a-b|\) for all real numbers \(a\) and \(b\).

Problem 35

Suppose that \(f\) and \(g\) are continuous on an interval \([a, b]\) and differentiable on the interval \((a, b)\). Furthermore, suppose that \(f(a)=g(a)\) and \(f^{\prime}(x)

Problem 39

Designing a Grain Silo A grain silo has the shape of a right circular cylinder surmounted by a hemisphere. If the silo is to have a volume of \(504 \pi \mathrm{ft}^{3}\), determine the radius and height of the silo that requires the least amount of material to build.

Problem 50

Traffic Flow Analysis The speed of traffic flow in miles per hour on a stretch of Route 123 between 6 A.M. and 10 A.M. on a typical workday is approximated by the function $$ f(t)=20 t-40 \sqrt{t}+52 \quad 0 \leq t \leq 4 $$ where \(t\) is measured in hours and \(t=0\) corresponds to 6 A.M. Sketch the graph of \(f\) and interpret your results.

Problem 51

Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity The mass of a particle moving at a velocity \(v\) is related to its rest mass \(m_{0}\) by the equation $$ m=f(v)=\frac{m_{0}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}} $$ where \(c\) is the speed of light. Sketch the graph of the function \(f\), and interpret your results.
