Calculate the instantaneous velocity for the given value of t of an object moving with rectilinear motion according to the given function relating s (in feet) and t (in seconds). s = t^2 + 2t; t = 3
Use a graphing calculator or a CAS If a point moves along a line so that its distance $s$ (in meters) from 0 is given by $s=(t+1)^{3} /(t+2)$ at time $t$ minutes, find its instantaneous velocity at $t=1.6 .$
The Derivative
Two Problems with One Theme
Use the position function to find the velocity at time $t=t_{0} .$ Assume units of feet and seconds. $s(t)=t \cos \left(t^{2}+\pi\right), t_{0}=0$
