At Noon, ship A is 200 km east of ship B and ship A is sailing north at 30 km/h. ten mins later, ship B starts to sail south at 35 km/h.

a) What is the distance between the two ships at 3pm?

b) How fast (in km/h) are the ships moving apart at 3pm?

A student in a noon calculus class is watching two bugs near the center of a wall. One is an ant and the other is a beetle. At noon, the ant is 180 cm directly to the left of the beetle. The ant is crawling right at 30 cm/h and the beetle is crawling up at 45 cm/h. How fast is the distance between the bugs changing at 2:00 PM? Answer with an exact value. cm/h?

Use differential calculus to find the maximum/minimum for an engineering problem. A sheet of metal is 340 mm x 225 mm and has four equal squares cut out at the corners so that the sides and edges can be turned up to form an open topped box shape. Calculate: (a) The lengths of the sides of the cut-out squares for the volume of the box to be as big as possible. (b) The maximum volume of the box.
