Sunrise Time Differential Problem: Based on a able of sunrise times from the U.S. NavalObservatory (http://aa.usno.navy.mil/ ), thetime of sunrise in Chicago for the first fewdays of March 2003 was changing at a rate ofdS / dt 1.636 minutes per day. For March 1,the table lists sunrise at 6:26 a.m. However,no equation is given explaining how the tablewas computed.a. Write the differential dS as a function of dt.Use your result to estimate the times ofsunrise 10 days and 20 days later, onMarch 11 and March 21. How do youranswers compare to the tabulated timesof 6:10 a.m. and 5:53 a.m., respectively?b. Explain why dS would not give a goodapproximation for the time of sunrise onSeptember 1, 2003.
