Disappearing Mothball The rate at which the volume of a mothball evaporates from solid to gas is proportional to the surface area of the ball. Suppose a mothball has been observed at one time to have a radius of 0.5 in. and, six months later, a radius of 0.25 in. (a) Express the radius of the mothball as a function of time. (b) When will the mothball disappear completely?
The average rate of change of a function f between
x = g
and
x = b
is
average rate of change =
f
− f
b − g

- Freight on Class I Railroads According to the Association of American Railroads, Class I freight railroads are the line-haul freight railroads with 2006 operating revenue in excess of 346.8million. Let F=F(t) denote the freight revenue in billions of dollars of Class I railroads in year t. In 2005, Class I railroads had a freight revenue of 44.5billion. In 2007, the revenue was 52.9 billion. Calculate the average rate of change per year in F from 2005 to 2007 and explain its meaning in practical terms.arrow_forwardThink About It In Exercises 33 and 34, use the graph to determine whether y varies directly as some power of x or inversely as some power of x.

- Falling with a parachute If an average-sized man jumps from an airplane with an open parachute, his downward velocity t seconds into the fall is v(t)=20(10.2t) Feet per second. a. Use functional notation to express the velocity 2 seconds into the fall, and then calculate it. b. Explain how the velocity increases with time. Include in your explanation the average rate of change from the beginning of the fall to the end of the first second and the average rate of change from the fifth second to the sixth second of the fall. c. Find the terminal velocity. d. Compare the time it takes to reach 99 of terminal velocity here with the time it took to reach 99 of terminal velocity in Example 2.1. On the basis of the information we have, which would you expect to reach 99 of terminal velocity first, a feather or a cannonball?arrow_forwardStopping Distance The table below shows the average stopping distance D, in feet, for a car on dry pavement versus the speed S of the car, in miles per hour.
