Deriving trigonometric identities
c. Differentiate both sides of the identity sin 2t = 2 sin t cost to prove that cos 2t = cos²t−sin²t.

Highway travel A state patrol station is located on a straight north-south freeway. A patrol car leaves the station at 9:00 A.M. heading north with position function s = f(t) that gives its location in miles t hours after 9:00 A.M. (see figure). Assume s is positive when the car is north of the patrol station. <IMAGE>

c. Find the average velocity of the car over the interval [1.75, 2.25]. Estimate the velocity of the car at 11:00 A.M. and determine the direction in which the patrol car is moving.

c. Verify that the zeros of f' correspond to points at which f has a horizontal tangent line.

f(x)=e^−x tan^−1 x on [0,∞)

Derivatives using tables Let $h(x)=f(g(x))$ and $p(x)=g(f(x))$. Use the table to compute the following derivatives.

Throwing a stone Suppose a stone is thrown vertically upward from the edge of a cliff on Earth with an initial velocity of 32 ft/s from a height of 48 ft above the ground. The height (in feet) of the stone above the ground t seconds after it is thrown is s(t) = -16t²+32t+48.

c. What is the height of the stone at the highest point?

City urbanization City planners model the size of their city using the function A(t) = - 1/50t² + 2t +20, for 0 ≤ t ≤ 50, where A is measured in square miles and t is the number of years after 2010.

c. Suppose the population density of the city remains constant from year to year at 1000 people mi². Determine the growth rate of the population in 2030.

Vibrations of a spring Suppose an object of mass m is attached to the end of a spring hanging from the ceiling. The mass is at its equilibrium position $y=0$ when the mass hangs at rest. Suppose you push the mass to a position $y_0$ units above its equilibrium position and release it. As the mass oscillates up and down (neglecting any friction in the system), the position y of the mass after t seconds is $y=y_0\cos \left(t\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}\right)$, where $k>0$ is a constant measuring the stiffness of the spring (the larger the value of $k$, the stiffer the spring) and $y$ is positive in the upward direction.

Use equation (4) to answer the following questions.

c. How would the velocity be affected if the experiment were repeated with a spring having four times the stiffness ($k$ is increased by a factor of $4$)?
