Chapter 2.4, Problem 37E

(a)

To determine

To graph: The function f(t)=4.96+.48t+.17t2.0048t3 in the window [0,20] by [12,50] where t is the number of days and f(t) is the body weight of a baby rat in the control group in grams.

(b)

To determine

The approximate rat weigh after 7 days by using function f(t)=4.96+.48t+.17t2.0048t3 where t is number of days and f(t) is the body weight of a baby rat in the control group in grams.

(c)

To determine

When did the rat’s weight reach 27 grams by using function f(t)=4.96+.48t+.17t2.0048t3 where t is number of days and f(t) is the body weight of a baby rat in the control group in grams.

(d)

To determine

How fast was the rat gaining weight after 4 days by using function f(t)=4.96+.48t+.17t2.0048t3 where t is number of days and f(t) is the body weight of a baby rat in the control group in grams.

(e)

To determine

When was the rat gaining weight at the rate of 2 grams per day by using function f(t)=4.96+.48t+.17t2.0048t3 where t is number of days and f(t) is the body weight of a baby rat in the control group in grams.

(f)

To determine

When was the rat gaining weight at the fastest rate by using function f(t)=4.96+.48t+.17t2.0048t3, where t is the number of days and f(t) is the body weight of a baby rat in the control group in grams.

1. Show that the vector field F(x, y, z) = (2x sin ye³)ix² cos yj + (3xe³ +5)k satisfies the necessary conditions for a conservative vector field, and find a potential function for F.
1. Newton's Law of Gravitation (an example of an inverse square law) states that the magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects with masses m and M is |F| mMG |r|2 where r is the distance between the objects, and G is the gravitational constant. Assume that the object with mass M is located at the origin in R³. Then, the gravitational force field acting on the object at the point r = (x, y, z) is given by F(x, y, z) = mMG r3 r. mMG mMG Show that the scalar vector field f(x, y, z) = = is a potential function for r √√x² + y² . Fi.e. show that F = Vf. Remark: f is the negative of the physical potential energy, because F = -V(-ƒ).
2. Suppose f(x) = 3x² - 5x. Show all your work for the problems below.
