(choose chapter or problem)

Suppose that a bird flies along the helical curve x = 2 cost, y = 2 sin t, z = 3t. The bird suddenly encounters a weather front so that the barometric pressure is varying rather wildly from point to point as P(x, y,z) = 6x 2z/y atm. (a) Use the chain rule to determine how the pressure is changing at t = /4 min. (b) Check your result in part (a) by direct substitution. (c) What is the approximate pressure at t = /4 + 0.01 min?
