If a rock is thrown upward on the planet mars with a velocity of 11 m/s, its height (in meters) after t seconds is given by h =

11t − 1.86t2. (a) find the velocity of the rock after two seconds. 3.56 m/s (b) find the velocity of the rock when t =
a. 11−3.72a m/s (c) when will the rock hit the surface? (round your answer to one decimal place.) t = s (d) with what velocity will the rock hit the surface? m/s

(a) 3.56 m/s 
(b) 11 - 3.72a 
(c) t = 5.9 s 
(d) -11 m/s  
For most of these problems, you're being asked the velocity of the rock as a function of t, while you've been given the position as a function of t. So first calculate the first derivative of the position function using the power rule. 
y = 11t - 1.86t^2 
y' = 11 - 3.72t 
Now that you have the first derivative, it will give you the velocity as a function of t. 
(a) Velocity after 2 seconds. 
y' = 11 - 3.72t 
y' = 11 - 3.72*2 = 11 - 7.44 = 3.56 
So the velocity is 3.56 m/s  
(b) Velocity after a seconds. 
y' = 11 - 3.72t 
y' = 11 - 3.72a  
So the answer is 11 - 3.72a  
(c) Use the quadratic formula to find the zeros for the position function y = 11t-1.86t^2. Roots are t = 0 and t = 5.913978495. The t = 0 is for the moment the rock was thrown, so the answer is t = 5.9 seconds.  
(d) Plug in the value of t calculated for (c) into the velocity function, so: 
y' = 11 - 3.72a
 y' = 11 - 3.72*5.913978495
 y' = 11 - 22
 y' = -11 
 So the velocity is -11 m/s which makes sense since the total energy of the rock will remain constant, so it's coming down at the same speed as it was going up.

Answer:

  (D)  4

Explanation:

The percentage error in each of the contributors to the calculation is 1%. The maximum error in the calculation is approximately the sum of the errors of each contributor, multiplied by the number of times it is a factor in the calculation.

  density = mass/volume

  density = mass/(π(radius^2)(length))

So, mass and length are each a factor once, and radius is a factor twice. Then the total percentage error is approximately 1% +1% +2×1% = 4%.

_____

If you look at the maximum and minimum density, you find they are ...

  {0.0611718, 0.0662668} g/(mm²·cm)

The ratio of the maximum value to the mean of these values is about 1.03998. So, the maximum is 3.998% higher than the "nominal" density.

The error is about 4%.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

If you work through the details of the math, you will see that the above-described sum of error percentages is <em>just an approximation</em>. If you need a more exact error estimate, it is best to work with the ranges of the numbers involved, and/or their distributions.

Using numbers with uniformly distributed errors will give different results than with normally distributed errors. When such distributions are involved, you need to carefully define what you mean by a maximum error. (By definition, normal distributions extend to infinity in both directions.) While the central limit theorem tends to apply, the actual shape of the error distribution may not be precisely normal.
