Explain the key points and reasons for 12.8.2 (1) and 12.8.2 (2)
Q1: A slider in a machine moves along a fixed straight rod. Its distance x cm along the rod is given below for various values of the time. Find the velocity and acceleration of the slider when t = 0.3 seconds. t(seconds) x(cm) 0 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 30.13 31.62 32.87 33.64 33.95 33.81 33.24 Q2: Using the Runge-Kutta method of fourth order, solve for y atr = 1.2, From dy_2xy +et = dx x²+xc* Take h=0.2. given x = 1, y = 0 Q3:Approximate the solution of the following equation using finite difference method. ly -(1-y= y = x), y(1) = 2 and y(3) = −1 On the interval (1≤x≤3).(taking h=0.5).
Consider the function f(x) = x²-1. (a) Find the instantaneous rate of change of f(x) at x=1 using the definition of the derivative. Show all your steps clearly. (b) Sketch the graph of f(x) around x = 1. Draw the secant line passing through the points on the graph where x 1 and x-> 1+h (for a small positive value of h, illustrate conceptually). Then, draw the tangent line to the graph at x=1. Explain how the slope of the tangent line relates to the value you found in part (a). (c) In a few sentences, explain what the instantaneous rate of change of f(x) at x = 1 represents in the context of the graph of f(x). How does the rate of change of this function vary at different points?
