3-5 Higher Derivatives Tues Oct 20 Do Now Find the velocity at t = 2 for each position function 1) 2)
2
HW Review: p.156 #1-11 15-37
3
Higher Derivatives You can compute higher derivatives by continually taking derivatives of your answer Second derivative:
4
Ex 1 Calculate f’’’(-1) for
5
Ex 2 Calculate the first four derivatives of
6
Ex 3 If you use product rule for the first derivative, you will need it for any higher derivatives Ex: Find the first three derivatives of
7
Acceleration Since velocity is the first derivative of position, acceleration is the 2nd derivative Ex: A ball’s position can be modeled by the function Find the velocity and acceleration functions for the ball
8
Graph of the second derivative The graph of the second derivative describes how fast/slow the slope is changing Large second derivative = slope changes quickly
9
Closure Compute the fourth derivative of HW: p.163 #1-29 odds 37-45 odds 3.1-3.6 Quiz soon (Fri)
