Warm-Up: January 7, 2013 • Write a differential formula that estimates the change in volume of a sphere when the radius changes from r to r+dr.
Quiz Results: 4.1-4.3 • 7 questions, 3 points each • 21 points possible
Related Rates Section 4.6
What are related rates? • A rate is a ratio of the change in one variable to the change in another variable. • Typically the second variable is time, t. • Related rates are two (or more) rates that can be related in a single equation.
Example 1 – p. 238 #16 • Sand falls from a conveyor belt at the rate of 10 m3/min onto the top of a conical pile. The height of the pile is always three-eights of the base diameter. How fast are the (a) height and (b) radius changing when the pile is 4 m high? Give your answers in cm/min.
Related Rate Problems • Draw a picture and name the variables and constants. • Write down the numerical information. • Write down what we are asked to find. • Write a single equation that relates the variables. • Differentiate with respect to t. • Evaluate.

Warm-Up: January 8, 2013 • A spherical balloon is being inflated. The air pump delivers a constant 12 cm3/s. How fast is the radius increasing when the radius is 8 cm?
Example 2 – p. 239 #22 • A balloon is rising vertically above a level, straight road at a constant rate of 1 ft/sec. Just when the balloon is 65 ft above the ground, a bicycle moving at a constant rate of 17 ft/sec passes under it. How fast is the distance between the bicycle and balloon increasing 3 sec later?
