The Derivative-Instantaneous rate of change The derivative of a function, f at a specific value of x, say a is a value given by: The derivative of a function, f as a function of x, is called f (x) and is given by:

Velocity. The particle is moving forward for the first 3 seconds and backwards the next 2 sec, stands still for a second and then moves forward. forward motion means velocity is positive backward motion means velocity is negative If velocity = 0, object is standing still.

The graphs of s and v as functions of time; s is largest when v = ds/dt = 0. The graph of s is not the path of the rock: It is a plot of height versus time. The slope of the plot is the rock’s velocity graphed here as a straight line. a) How high does the rock go? b) What is the velocity when the rock is 256 ft. above the ground on the way up? On the way down? c) What is the acceleration of the rock at any time? d) When does the rock hit the ground? At what velocity? 3.4 applications A dynamite blast blows a heavy rock straight up with a launch velocity of 160 ft/sec. Its height is given by s = -16t 2 +160t.

a) How high does the rock go? Maximum height occurs when v =0. -32t + 160 = 0 v = s´= -32t + 160 t = 5 sec. s = -16t 2 +160t At t = 5, s = -16(5) 2 +160(5) = 400 feet.

A dynamite blast blows a heavy rock straight up with a launch velocity of 160 ft/sec. Its height is given by s = -16t 2 +160t. b) What is the velocity when the rock is 256 ft. above the ground on the way up? On the way down? v =-32t + 160 at t = 2 v=-32(2)+160 = 96 ft/sec. at t = 8 v=-32(8)+160 = -96 ft/sec -16t 2 +160t = 256 -16t 2 +160t –256=0 -16(t 2 - 10t + 16)=0 -16(t – 2) (t- 8) = 0 t = 2 or t = 8 Find the times Substitute the times into the velocity function Set position = 256
