Problem 1 (15 points)

Let  f be the function defined by  f ( x ) = 64 x - x 3  for  0 £ x £ 8 where both  x and  y are measured in
feet. Let  S be the region in the first quadrant bounded by the graph of  y = f ( x). 

a) Use a midpoint Riemann sum with two subintervals of equal length to approximate the area of
region  S . Include units of measure.
x 

b) Let  g be the function defined by  g ( x ) = ò f (w) dw for  0 £ x(t ) £ 8.  When  x = 4 ,  x
0 
is

increasing at a rate of  1 4 feet/min. At what rate is  g changing when  x = 4 ? Include units of measure.
c) In terms of region  S , explain the meaning of your answer to part (b).

Problem 2 (15 points)

An object moves so that its acceleration at time  t is given by  A(t ) = -32 + 2v(t ) , where  v(t ) is the velocity
at time  t . Time is in seconds, and the velocity is in feet per second.

a) Show that  v(t ) = 16 + Ce 2 t  is a possible function.

b) If  v is in the form indicated in part (a), and  v(0) = 0, what is  C ?
c) Is there a time  t for which A(t ) = 0 ? Explain.
d) If the object starts at an initial height of 100 feet, find the height as a function of  t.
