Q#1.
In the following equation assume that 𝑥 and 𝑦 are both functions of 𝑡.
𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑥
Given 𝑥 = 3, 𝑦 = 2 and = 7.Find for the following equation:
𝑑𝑡 𝑑𝑡

𝑥 3 − 𝑦4 = 𝑥 2𝑦 − 7

Q#2.
The sides of a square are increasing at a rate of 10 cm/sec. Find how fast is the
area enclosed by the square increasing when the area is 150 cm2.

Q#3.
A thin sheet of ice is in the form of a circle. If the ice is melting in such a way
that the area of the sheet is decreasing at a rate of 0.5 m2/sec. Find at what rate
is the radius decreasing when the area of the sheet is 12 m2?

Q#4. If two resisters of 𝑅1 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑅2 ohms are connected in parallel in an electric

circuit like one shown in the figure, to make an 𝑅 ohm resister.

The value of ‘ 𝑅’is given by the formula

1 1 1
 
R R1 R2
If 𝑅1 is decreasing at the rate of 1 ohm/sec and 𝑅2 is increasing at the rate of
0.5ohm/sec, Find at what rate ‘R’ is changing, when R1= 75 ohms & R2 = 50
ohms.
