27. Rate of Change The number of bacteria, N(t), in a certain culture is calculated using the formula N(t) = 4t 3 + 400t + 1000 where t is the time in hours from the start of the growth. Calculate the growth rate of this culture when t=5. The rate of change is a derative so we need to find N ′ (t). The growth rate of the culture is 700 bacteria per hour after 5 hours. t=5, so substitute 5 into N’(t) for t. Back

29. Velocity, Speed and Acceleration The speed of the particle is its rate of change of distance with time, given by d’(t). So we need to differentiate : The speed of the particle after 5 seconds is 143 cm/s (a) Continue 

30. Velocity, Speed and Acceleration (b) (i) To find the acceleration of the particle we need to find how quickly it is changing speed i.e. the rate of change of speed with time. We find this by differentiating the speed. The speed was found in (a) as d ′ (t). We can call this s(t) where s is speed. Acceleration will then be s ′ (t) (b) (ii) So the acceleration of the particle at t = 5 is 42 cm/s per second
