This question builds on an earlier problem. The randomized numbers may have changed, but have your work for the previous problem available to help with this one.
A 4-centimeter rod is attached at one end to a point A rotating counterclockwise on a wheel of radius 2 cm. The other end B is free to move back and forth along a horizontal bar that goes through the center of the wheel. At time t=0 the rod is situated as in the diagram at the left below. The
wheel rotates counterclockwise at 1.5 rev/sec. At some point, the rod will be tangent to the circle as shown in the third picture.

(b) Since f(x) = ex², we have f'(x)

and f'(x) =
Also, since 0 ≤ x ≤ 1 we have x² ≤
and so
Taking K = 6e, a = 0, b = 1, and n = 10 in the error estimate, we see that an upper bound for the error is as follows. (Round your final
answer to five decimal places.)
