Application
A 13 ft ladder is leaning against a wall. If the top of the ladder slips down the wall at
a rate of 2ft/s, how fast will the foot be moving away from the wall when the top is
5ft above the ground.

A spherical balloon is to be deflated so that its radius decreases at a constant rate

of 15 cm/min. At what rate must air be removed when the radius is 9cm?

A rocket rising vertically at 880ft/s is tracked by a radar station that is on the ground 3000
ft from the launch pad. At what rate is the launching pad to rocket distance change
(i) When the rocket is 4000ft up
(ii) After the rocket liftoff 10 seconds
