During a flood, the water level in a river first rose faster and faster, then rose more and more slowly until it reached its highest point, then went back down to its preflood level. Consider water depth as a function of time. (a) Is the time of highest water level a critical point or an inflection point of this function? (b) Is the time when the water first began to rise more slowly a critical point or an inflection point?

When I got up in the morning I put on only a light jacket because, although the temperature was dropping, it seemed that the temperature would not go much lower. But I was wrong. Around noon a northerly wind blew up and the temperature began to drop faster and faster. The worst was around 6 pm when, fortunately, the temperature started going back up. (a) When was there a critical point in the graph of temperature as a function of time? (b) When was there an inflection point in the graph of temperature as a function of time?
