Moe is pouring water into a glass.

At time t (seconds) the height

of the water in the glass is h(t) (inch). The ACME glass company,
which made the glass, says that the volume in the glass to
height h is V = 1.2 h2 (fluid ounces).
(a) The water height in the glass is rising at 2 inch per second at
the moment that the height is 2 inch. How fast is Moe
pouring water into the glass?
(b) If Moe pours water at a rate of 1 ounce per second, then how
fast is the water level in the glass going up when it is 3
inches?
(c) Moe pours water at 1 ounce per second, and at some
moment the water level is going up at 0.5 inch per second.
What is the water level at that moment?

A cubical sponge, hereafter refered to as Bob, is

absorbing water, which causes him to expand. His
side at time t is S(t). His volume is V (t).
(a)What is the relation between S(t) and V (t), i.e.
can you find a function f so that V (t) = f(S(t))?
(b)Describe the meaning of the derivatives S 0 (t)
and V 0 (t) in one plain english sentence each. If
we measure lengths in inches and time in
minutes, then what units do t, S(t), V (t), S0 (t)
and V 0 (t) have?
(c)What is the relation between S 0 (t) and V 0 (t)?
(d)At the moment that Bobs volume is 8 cubic
inches, he is absorbing water at a rate of 2 cubic
inch per minute. How fast is his side S(t) growing?

A pole 13 meters long is leaning

against a wall. The bottom of the pole
is pulled along the ground away from
the wall at the rate of 2 m/s. How fast
is its height on the wall decreasing
when the foot of the pole is 5 m away
from the wall?

A television camera is positioned 4000

ft from the base of a rocket launching
pad. A rocket rises vertically and its
speed is 600 ft/s when it has risen
3000 feet.
(a)How fast is the distance from the
television camera to the rocket
changing at that moment?
(b)How fast is the cameras angle of
elevation changing at that same
moment? (Assume that the
television camera points toward the
rocket.)

 A 2-foot tall dog is walking away from

a streetlight which is on a 10-foot
pole. At a certain moment, the tip of
the dogs shadow is moving away
from the streetlight at 5 feet per
second. How fast is the dog walking
at that moment?

Which rectangle has the largest area,
among all those rectangles for which
the total length of the sides is 1?

If the sides of the rectangle have

lengths x and y, then the total
length of the sides is
L = x + x + y + y = 2(x + y)
and the area of the rectangle is
A = xy:
So are asked to find the largest
possible value of A = xy provided
2(x + y) = 1.
The lengths of the sides can
also not be negative, so x and y
must satisfy x>= 0, y>= 0.

However, the variables x and y are not

independent since we are only allowed
to consider rectangles with L = 1. From
this equation we get
L=1
==> y = - x
Hence we must find the maximum of
the quantity
A = xy = x (1/2 X)
Find max of
