33. A car is traveling north on a straight road at 20 m/s and a drone is flying east at 6m/s at an
elevation of 25 m. At one instant the drone passes directly over the car. How fast is the distance
between the drone and the car changing 5 seconds later?
34. If the minute hand of a clock has length r (in centimeters), find the rate at which it sweeps out area
as a function of r.
