Answer:

Kinetic energy is energy an object has because of its motion. A ball held in the air, for example, has gravitational potential energy. If released, as the ball moves faster and faster toward the ground, the force of gravity will transfer the potential energy to kinetic energy.

A 39-foot ladder is leaning against a vertical wall. If the bottom of the ladder is being pulled away from the wall at the rate

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

The rate of change of the area when the bottom of the ladder (denoted by $b$ ) is at 36 ft. from the wall is the following:

$\frac{dA}{dt}|_{b=36}=-571.2\, ft^2/s$

Explanation:

The Area of the triangle is given by $A=h\times b$ where $h=\sqrt{l^2-b^2}$ (by using the Pythagoras' Theorem) and $b$ is the length of the base of the triangle or the distance between the bottom of the ladder and the wall.

The area is then

$A=\sqrt{l^2-b^2}b$

The rate of change of the area is given by its time derivative

$\frac{dA}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}\left(\sqrt{l^2-b^2}\cdot b\right)$

$\implies \frac{dA}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}\left(\sqrt{l^2-b^2}\right)\cdot b+\frac{db}{dt}\cdot\sqrt{l^2-b^2}$

$\implies\frac{dA}{dt}=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\frac{d}{dt}(l^2-b^2)\cdot b+\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot \frac{db}{dt}$ Product rule

$\implies\frac{dA}{dt}=-\frac{1}{2\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot 2\cdot b^2\cdot \frac{db}{dt}+\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot \frac{db}{dt}$ Chain rule

$\implies\frac{dA}{dt}=-\frac{1}{\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot b^2\cdot \frac{db}{dt}+\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot \frac{db}{dt}$

$\implies\frac{dA}{dt}=\frac{db}{dt}\left(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\cdot b^2+\sqrt{l^2-b^2}}\right)$

In here we can identify $b=36\, ft$ , $l=39$ and $\frac{db}{dt}=8\,ft/s$ .

The result is then

$\frac{dA}{dt}=8\left(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{39^2-36^2}}\cdot 36^2+\sqrt{39^2-36^2}}\right)=-571.2\, ft^2/s$
