- If a coffee filter is dropped, its velocity after t seconds is given by v(t)=4(10.0003t) feet per second. What is the terminal velocity, and how long does it take the filter to reach 99 of terminal velocity? Use a table increment of 0.1 and given your answer to the nearest tenth of a second.arrow_forwardPlease show a step-by-step solution. Do not skip steps, and explain your steps.arrow_forwardFirst, construct the sixth degree Taylor polynomial Pe(x) for function f(x)= sin(x2) about x, =0. Then use P(x)dx to approximate the integral sin(x?)dx. Use 4-digit rounding arithmetic in all calculations. What is the approximate value?arrow_forward
- Approximate f(x) = secx by Taylor polynomial with a degree of 2 at x = 0. What is the accuracy of the approximation when x lies in the interval 0 < x<1/6?arrow_forwardTo calculate f(1.02) from the function f(x) = x 1/2, first write the Taylor expansion of the function at x0 = 1 with 5 terms. Then calculate f(1.02) with an accuracy of two decimal places by error analysis from Taylor expansion.arrow_forwardI really have trouble solving these Taylor series questions, please help me out with these questions, thanksarrow_forward
