On May 7, 1992, the space shuttle Endeavour was launched on mission STS-49, the purpose of which was to install a new perigee kick motor in an Intelsat communications satellite. The table gives the velocity data for the shuttle between liftoff and the jettisoning of the solid rocket boosters. (a) Use a graphing calculator or computer to find the cubic polynomial that best models the velocity of the shuttle for the time interval . Then graph this polynomial. (b) Find a model for the acceleration of the shuttle and use it to estimate the maximum and minimum values of the acceleration during the first 125 seconds.

When a foreign object lodged in the trachea (windpipe) forces v a person to cough, the diaphragm thrusts upward causing an increase in pressure in the lungs. This is accompanied by a contraction of the trachea, making a narrower channel for the expelled air to flow through. For a given amount of air to escape in a fixed time, it must move faster through the narrower channel than the wider one. The greater the velocity of the airstream, the greater the force on the foreign object. X rays show that the radius of the circular tracheal tube contracts to about two-thirds of its normal radius during a cough. According to a mathematical model of coughing, the velocity of the airstream is related to the radius of the trachea by the equation where is a constant and is the normal radius of the trachea. The restriction on is due to the fact that the tracheal wall stiffens under pressure and a contraction greater than is prevented (otherwise the person would suffocate). (a) Determine the value of in the interval at which has an absolute maximum. How does this compare with experimental evidence? (b) What is the absolute maximum value of on the interval? (c) Sketch the graph of on the interval

A drug response curve describes the level of medication in the bloodstream after a drug is administered. A surge function is often used to model the response curve, reflecting an initial surge in the drug level and then a more gradual decline. If, for a particular drug, , and is measured in minutes, estimate the times corresponding to the inflection points and explain their significance. If you have a graphing device, use it to graph the drug response curve.

How many local maximum points do you see? The graph has more than are visible to the naked eye. To discover the hidden maximum and minimum points you will need to examine the graph of f * very carefully. In fact, it helps to look at the graph of f # at the same time. Find all the maximum and minimum values and inflection points. Then graph in the viewing rectangle by and comment on symmetry.

The blood vascular system consists of blood vessels (arteries, arterioles, capillaries, and veins) that convey blood from the heart to the organs and back to the heart. This system should work so as to minimize the energy expended by the heart in pumping the blood. In particular, this energy is reduced when the resistance of the blood is lowered. One of Poiseuilles Laws gives the resistance of the blood as where is the length of the blood vessel, is the radius, and is a positive constant determined by the viscosity of the blood. (Poiseuille established this law experimentally, but it also follows from Equation 8.4.2.) The figure shows a main blood vessel with radius branching at an angle into a smaller vessel with radius Manfred Cage / Peter Arnold b A B r r C a vascular branching r2

Ornithologists have determined that some species of birds tend to avoid flights over large bodies of water during daylight hours. It is believed that more energy is required to fly over water than land because air generally rises over land and falls over water during the day. A bird with these tendencies is released from an island that is 5 km from the nearest point on a straight shoreline, flies to a point on the shoreline, and then flies along the shoreline to its nesting area . Assume that the bird instinctively chooses a path that will minimize its energy expenditure. Points and are 13 km apart. (a) In general, if it takes 1.4 times as much energy to fly over water as land, to what point should the bird fly in order to minimize the total energy expended in returning to its nesting area? (b) Let and L denote the energy (in joules) per kilometer flown over water and land, respectively. What would a large value of the ratio W#L mean in terms of the birds flight? What would a small value mean? Determine the ratio corresponding to the minimum expenditure of energy. (c) What should the value of be in order for the bird to fly directly to its nesting area ? What should the value of be for the bird to fly to and then along the shore to D?

An object is to be placed at a point on a line ! parallel to the line joining the light sources and at a distance meters from it (see the figure). We want to locate on ! so that the intensity of illumination is minimized. We need to use the fact that the intensity of illumination for a single source is directly proportional to the strength of the source and inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source. (a) Find an expression for the intensity at the point . (b) If m, use graphs of and to show that the intensity is minimized when m, that is, when is at the midpoint of !. (c) If m, show that the intensity (perhaps surprisingly) is not minimized at the midpoint.

The figure shows the sun located at the origin and the earth at the point . (The unit here is the distance between the centers of the earth and the sun, called an astronomical unit: 1 AU km.) There are five locations , , , , and in this plane of rotation of the earth about the sun where a satellite remains motionless with respect to the earth because the forces acting on the satellite (including the gravi tational attractions of the earth and the sun) balance each other. These locations are called libration points. (A solar research satellite has been placed at one of these libration points.)
