Exercise 8
Step 1
1 of 3
The trip is at its minimum height at $t=0$. Normally the sine function is $0$ at $0$, so the function in this case is translated to the right by $dfrac{1}{4}$ of its period. The propeller makes $200$ revolutions per second, so the period is $dfrac{1}{200}$. The amplitude of the function is the length of the propeller, which is positive. Assume that it is $1$ m for this exercise.
Then the function that describes the height of the tip of the propeller is $h(t)=sin(400pi(t-dfrac{1}{800}))$.
The graph of this function is shown below.

Exercise 9
Step 1
1 of 2
#### (a)

The axis is at $20.2$.So, the equation of the axis is $y=20.2$ and the amplitude is $4.5$.

$k=dfrac{2pi}{24}=dfrac{pi}{12}$

$R(t)=4.5cosleft( dfrac{pi}{12}tright)+20.2$

#### (b)

fastest: $t=6 months, t=18 months, t=30 months, t=42 months$;

slowest: $t=0 months, t=12 months, t=24 months, t=36 months, t=48 months$

#### (c)

For $5leq tleq7$

$t=5$

$R(5)=4.5cosleft( dfrac{pi}{12}(5)right)+20.2$

$R(5)=21.364$

$t=7$

$R(7)=4.5cosleft(dfrac{pi}{12}(7) right)+20.2$

$R(7)=19.035$

Use the points $(5, 21.364)$ and $(7, 19.035)$.

$dfrac{19.035-21.364}{7-5}=dfrac{-2.329}{2}=-1.164$

i) For $11 leq t leq 13$

$t=11$

$y=0.5 sinleft(dfrac{pi}{6}(11) right)+4$

$y=3.75$

$t=13$

$y=0.5sinleft(dfrac{pi}{6}(13) right)+4$

$y=4.25$

Use the points $(11, 3.75)$ and $(13, 4.25)$.

$dfrac{4.25-3.75}{13-11}=dfrac{0.5}{2}=0.25 t/h$

ii) For $11.5leq t leq 12.5$

$t=11.5$

$y=0.5sinleft(dfrac{pi}{6}(11.5) right)+4$

$y=3.8706$

$t=12.5$

$y=0.5sinleft(dfrac{pi}{6}(12.5) right)+4$

$y=4.1294$

Use the points $(11.5, 3.8706)$ and $(12.5, 4.1294)$.

$dfrac{4.1294-3.8706}{12.5-11.5}=0.2588$ t/h

iii) For $11.75leq t leq 12.25$

$t=11.75$

$y=0.5sinleft(dfrac{pi}{6} (11.75)right)+4$

$y=3.9347$

$t=12.25$

$y=0.5sinleft(dfrac{pi}{6}(12.25) right)+4$

$y=4.0653$

Use the points $(11.75, 3.9347)$ and $(12.25, 4.0653)$.

$dfrac{4.0653-3.9347}{12.25-11.75}=dfrac{0.1306}{0.5}=0.2612$ t/h

The bob is moving the fastest when it passes throug its rest position. You can tell because the images of the balls are farthest apart at this point.

$h(t)=sinleft(dfrac{pi}{5}t right)$

#### (a)

For $0leq t leq 5$,

$h(0)=sinleft(dfrac{pi}{5}(0) right)=0$

$h(5)=sinleft(dfrac{pi}{5}(5) right)=0$

$dfrac{0-0}{5-0}=0$

#### (b)

For $5.5 leq t leq 6.5$

$t=5.5$

$h(5.5)=sinleft(dfrac{pi}{5}(5.5) right)$

$h(5.5)=-0.309$

$h(6.5)=sinleft( dfrac{pi}{5}(6.5)right)$

$h(6.5)=-0.809$

Use the points $(5.5, -0.309)$ and $(6.5, -0.809)$.

$dfrac{-0.809-(-0.309)}{6.5-5.5}=dfrac{-0.5}{1}=-0.5$ m/s

Exercise 14
Step 1
1 of 2
Answers may vary. For example, for $x=0$, the instantaneous rate of change of $f(x)=sin x$ is approximately $0.9003$, while the instantaneous rate of change $f(x)=3sin x$ is approximately $2.7009$.
(The interval $-dfrac{pi}{4}< x <dfrac{pi}{4}$was used.)Therefore, the instantaneous rate of change of $f(x)=3sin x$is at its maximum tree times more than the instantaneous rate of change od $f(x)=sin x$.However, there are points where the instantaneous rate of change is the same for the two functions. For example, at $x=dfrac{pi}{2}$, it is $0$ for both functions.
