3. (10%) Find dy
dx and d2y
dx2 at the point (1, 1) of the curve x3+ x2y + 4y2 = 6.
Sol:
Let y=y(x), then take derivative of x3+ x2y + 4y2 = 6 on both side over x variable , we get
3x2+ 2xy + x2y0+ 8yy0 = 0 (a)
.Then substitute x=1,y=1 into this equation we obtain 3 + 2 + y0+ 8y0 = 0,i.e,y0 =−5/9.
Taking derivative of 3x2+ 2xy + x2y0+ 8yy0 = 0 again we have second derivative of y, it become
6x + 2y + 2xy0 + 2xy0+ x2y00+ 8(y0)2+ 8yy00 = 0 (b) . When evaluating at (1, 1) point, and using y0(1) =−5/9 from above, we have
6 + 2 + 2(−5
9 ) + 2(−5
9 ) + y00+ 8(−5
9 )2+ 8y00= 0. That is, y00(1) =−668 729. Correction standard for this problem:
(1) Correct answer got whole points.Equations for (a) and (b) cost 4 points.
(2) If you just lost one to two terms and you knew the calculation of chain rule along your calculation, it would cost you one to two points.
(3) Methods that are different from above are OK. And your calculation will be graded by the same principles as (1) and (2).
4. (12%) A particle is moving along the curve y = sin−1(x
2). As the particle passes the point (√
2,π
4), its y-coordinate increases at a rate of 2 cm/s. How fast is the distance from the particle to the origin changing at this moment?
Sol:
Let x(t) and y(t) be the x-coordinate and y-coordinate of the particle at time t, respec- tively. And t0 be the time point such that x(t0) =√
2 and y(t0) = π
4. Then the distance from the particle to the origin at time t is z(t) = p
x2(t) + y2(t). By differentiating z with respect to t, we have
z0(t0) = 1
2(x2(t0) + y2(t0))−12 (2x(t0)x0(t0) + 2y(t0)y0(t0)) where y0(t0) = 2 and
x0(t0) = d dtx(t)¯¯¯
t=t0
= d
dt2 sin y(t)¯¯¯
t=t0
= (2 cos y(t))y0(t)¯¯¯
t=t0
= (2)(
√2
2 )(2) = 2√ 2.
With all the information above, one can clearly get the solution to this problem z0(t0) = 4 + π2
q 2 + π162
.
Grading Policy:
(1) Two points for successfully specifying the objective function z(t).
(2) An extra of eight points for correctly computing z0(t).
(3) You get the final two points for getting the above z0(t0).
