River velocities:The ability of a river or stream to move sand, dirt, or other particles depends on the size of the particle and the velocity of the river. This relationship can be used to approximate the velocity (in mph) of the river using the function , where d is the diameter (in inches) of the particle being moved. (a) If a creek can move a particle of diameter 0.095 in., how fast is it moving? (b) What is the largest particle that can be moved by a stream flowing 1.1 mph?
