A boat is pulled into a dock by means of a rope attached to a pulley on the dock, Figure 2.1. The rope is attached to the bow of the boat at a point 1 m below the pulley. If the rope is pulled through the pulley at a rate of 1 m/sec, at what rate will the boat be approaching the dock when 10 m of rope is out
A hamburger wrapper is thrown from a third floor dorm window, and its motion can be modeled by the equation h(t) = -3t^2 + 6t + 30, where h is the height in feet and t is the time in seconds.
