(1) A box has a height of 6 inches, a width of 4 inches, and a length of 10 inches (and therefore a volume of 240 cubic inches). The height is decreasing at a rate of 0.5 inches per minute, the width is increasing at a rate of 2 inches per minute, and the length is increasing at a rate of 1 inch per minute. At what rate is the volume changing?
Car A travels East towards the intersection of two roads at 30 mph. Car B travels North away from the intersection at a rate of 40mph. How quickly is the distance between the cars changing when A is 3 miles away from the intersection and B is 4 miles away from the intersection?

A box currently has length and width of 10 inches and a height of 3 inches. Use calculus to determine at what rate the height changes, if the length and width are decreasing at a rate of 2 inches per minute and the volume of the box is constant. (6 points)
1. Convert 60 miles per hour into meters per second. 2. A student is trying to remember some formulas from geometry. In what follows, assume A is area, V is volume, and all other variables are lengths. Determine which formulas are dimensionally consistent. (c) V-0.5bh, (e) V nd 3. The length of a warchouse is measured to be 95.00m. The height of the roof is measured to be 1,350.00cm. The width is measured to be 0.0015km. Calculate the volume of...
1. An airplane if flying horizontally at a constant height of 6 km above a fixed observation point. At a certain moment the angle of elevation θ is 30° and decreasing and the speed of the plane is 4 km/h. (a) How fast is 0 decreasing at this moment? (b) How fast is the distance between the plane and the observation point is changing at this moment? 2. Trajectory of a particle is described by parametrical equations as t,y P,...
