Document Summary
Mat135 - lecture 4 - the tangent and velocity. Read sections 2. 1 -2. 3 from the textbook. The objective is finding the v (instantaneous) Assume that the position is recorded on a function s ( t ) in t , t. V av = s ( t 0 ) - s (0) / t 0 - 0. In order to find the instantaneous velocity, we want to take t 0 - 0 very small, at t = 0. Let f () be a function on the real numbers, a . We write lim x a f () = l. Evaluate both the left and right side of the number, the value. If f () is made arbitrary close to l by restricting to be sufficiently close to a (on either side of a ) but not equal to a. A rock is launched vertically upward from the ground at 96 ft/s.
