Rates and Distance
If a rock is thrown upward from a height of 10 feet with a velocity
of 73 feet per second then in the absence of air resistance
its height at time t will be
2
h( t ) 16 t 73 t 10
What are is its velocity and acceleration when it hits the ground?
Solve h(t) = 0 to get time when height is 0. t = -.133, t = 4.695
Velocity at time t is
h ' (t) 32 t 73
Acceleration at time t is h ‘’ (t) = -32
h '( 4.6956 ) -77.2593036
h ‘ ’ (4.6956) = -32
Rates and Distance II
A particle moves on the x-axis so that its position at time t is
x( t ) 1 4 t
At time t = 3 at what rate is its distance from the point (2,5) changing?
Position at time t is

Optimization
If f is continuous on a closed interval [a,b] then f assumes
its (absolute) maximum and (absolute) minimum values
on [a,b] at critical numbers of f.
Strategy for finding absolute maxima and minima of f on [a,b]:
i. Find the critical numbers c1, c2, …, of f. Be sure to include the
end points“a” and “b” among them.
ii.
Calculate the numbers f(c1), f(c2), …. The largest is the absolute
maximum and the smallest is the absolute minimum
Note that without end points there may be no absolute
maximum or minimum. Local maxima and minima may
exist and will occur at critical numbers.
Maxima and Minima when there
are no end points
Even if there are no (or only one) end point absolute maxima and
minima can be detected in case there is exactly one interior critical point.
If there is a unique interior critical number then it must be the point at
which the absolute maximum or absolute minimum occurs.
In situations such as this the unique critical number is where the
absolute max or min occurs. It will be a min if f ‘ <0 to the left and
f ‘ >0 to the right, a max if ‘ > 0 to the left and f ‘ >0 to the right.
Alternatively one can check concavity: concave up (f ‘’ <0) at the point
indicates local max, concave down (f ‘’ >0) indicates local min.
Example
A particle travels in the plane so that at time t its x-coordinate is
x(t) = 2t-3 and its y-coordinate is y(t) = 4-t. At which time is it
closest to the origin?
