MCV4U1 (5.2) - Higher-Order Derivatives Velocity and Acceleration Ex.) Given y = f(x) = 3x4 - 6x3 y' = f'(x) = dy = dx y'' = f''(x) = d2y = dx2 y''' = f'''(x) = d3y = dx3 = d4y = dx4 = d5y = dx5 In general, the number of derivatives equals the degree + 1
v(t) = s'(t) A(t) = v'(t) = s''(t) Velocity v(t)- the rate of change (derivative) of distance s(t) with respect to time Acceleration A(t)-the rate of change (derivative) of velocity v(t) with respect to the time (t) Speed =|v(t)| NOTE: speed cannot be measured in negative numbers If [a(t)] > 0 acceleration If [a(t)] < 0 deceleration
Example #1 A ball is thrown upwards so that its distance above the ground in metres after t seconds is s(t) = 24.5t - 4.9t2 a) Find v(t) and a(t) v(t)=s'(t)= a(t)=v'(t)=s''(t)= b) Find the max height of the ball **v(t)= at the max**
Example #2 The position function of a particle is given by s(t) = t3 + 2t2 + 2t (s in metres, t in seconds) a) Determine v(t) and a(t), for any time t b) What is the velocity and acceleration at 3 seconds? c) Find the velocity when a(t) = 34 m/s2 d) When is acceleration negative?
