Answer:

y = 0.85x

f(x) = x - 0.15x

All the choices seem to have a missing decimal point.

Does it matter which dimensions you select for the lenght and the width when you find the area of a rectangle? Explain

Levart [38]

It does not. So Long as the length is multipled by the height aka Long edge multiplied with the short edge, you will obtain the area of the rectangle.

a) The limit of the position of particle $Q$ when time approaches 2 is $-\pi$ .

b) The velocity of particle $Q$ is $v_{Q}(t) = \frac{2\pi\cdot \cos \pi t-\pi\cdot t \cdot \cos \pi t -\sin \pi t}{(2-t)^{2}}$ for all $t \ne 2$ .

c) The rate of change of the distance between particle $P$ and particle $Q$ at time $t = \frac{1}{2}$ is $\frac{4\sqrt{82}}{9}$ .

<h3>How to apply limits and derivatives to the study of particle motion</h3>

a) To determine the limit for $t = 2$ , we need to apply the following two algebraic substitutions:

$u = \pi t$ (1)

$k = 2\pi - u$ (2)

Then, the limit is written as follows:

$x(t) = \lim_{t \to 2} \frac{\sin \pi t}{2-t}$

$x(t) = \lim_{t \to 2} \frac{\pi\cdot \sin \pi t}{2\pi - \pi t}$

$x(u) = \lim_{u \to 2\pi} \frac{\pi\cdot \sin u}{2\pi - u}$

$x(k) = \lim_{k \to 0} \frac{\pi\cdot \sin (2\pi-k)}{k}$

$x(k) = -\pi\cdot \lim_{k \to 0} \frac{\sin k}{k}$

$x(k) = -\pi$

The limit of the position of particle $Q$ when time approaches 2 is $-\pi$ . $\blacksquare$

b) The function velocity of particle $Q$ is determined by the derivative formula for the division between two functions, that is:

$v_{Q}(t) = \frac{f'(t)\cdot g(t)-f(t)\cdot g'(t)}{g(t)^{2}}$ (3)

Where:

$f(t)$ - Function numerator.
$g(t)$ - Function denominator.
$f'(t)$ - First derivative of the function numerator.
$g'(x)$ - First derivative of the function denominator.

If we know that $f(t) = \sin \pi t$ , $g(t) = 2 - t$ , $f'(t) = \pi \cdot \cos \pi t$ and $g'(x) = -1$ , then the function velocity of the particle is:

$v_{Q}(t) = \frac{\pi \cdot \cos \pi t \cdot (2-t)-\sin \pi t}{(2-t)^{2}}$

$v_{Q}(t) = \frac{2\pi\cdot \cos \pi t-\pi\cdot t \cdot \cos \pi t -\sin \pi t}{(2-t)^{2}}$

The velocity of particle $Q$ is $v_{Q}(t) = \frac{2\pi\cdot \cos \pi t-\pi\cdot t \cdot \cos \pi t -\sin \pi t}{(2-t)^{2}}$ for all $t \ne 2$ . $\blacksquare$

c) The vector rate of change of the distance between particle P and particle Q ( $\dot r_{Q/P} (t)$ ) is equal to the vectorial difference between respective vectors velocity:

$\dot r_{Q/P}(t) = \vec v_{Q}(t) - \vec v_{P}(t)$ (4)

Where $\vec v_{P}(t)$ is the vector velocity of particle P.

If we know that $\vec v_{P}(t) = (0, 4)$ , $\vec v_{Q}(t) = \left(\frac{2\pi\cdot \cos \pi t - \pi\cdot t \cdot \cos \pi t + \sin \pi t}{(2-t)^{2}}, 0 \right)$ and $t = \frac{1}{2}$ , then the vector rate of change of the distance between the two particles:

$\dot r_{P/Q}(t) = \left(\frac{2\pi \cdot \cos \pi t - \pi\cdot t \cdot \cos \pi t + \sin \pi t}{(2-t)^{2}}, -4 \right)$

$\dot r_{Q/P}\left(\frac{1}{2} \right) = \left(\frac{2\pi\cdot \cos \frac{\pi}{2}-\frac{\pi}{2}\cdot \cos \frac{\pi}{2} +\sin \frac{\pi}{2}}{\frac{3}{2} ^{2}}, -4 \right)$

$\dot r_{Q/P} \left(\frac{1}{2} \right) = \left(\frac{4}{9}, -4 \right)$

The magnitude of the vector rate of change is determined by Pythagorean theorem:

$|\dot r_{Q/P}| = \sqrt{\left(\frac{4}{9} \right)^{2}+(-4)^{2}}$

$|\dot r_{Q/P}| = \frac{4\sqrt{82}}{9}$

The rate of change of the distance between particle $P$ and particle $Q$ at time $t = \frac{1}{2}$ is $\frac{4\sqrt{82}}{9}$ . $\blacksquare$

<h3>Remark</h3>

The statement is incomplete and poorly formatted. Correct form is shown below:

Particle $P$ moves along the y-axis so that its position at time $t$ is given by $y(t) = 4\cdot t - 23$ for all times $t$ . A second particle, $Q$ , moves along the x-axis so that its position at time $t$ is given by $x(t) = \frac{\sin \pi t}{2-t}$ for all times $t \ne 2$ .
