• If the position of a ball rolling along a track changes from 10 cm to 20 cm while the clock time changes from 4 seconds to 9 seconds, what is the average rate of change of its position with respect to clock time during this interval?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

A= 10 cm B= 5 seconds

Average rate= 2 cm/s

• If the velocity of a ball rolling along a track changes from 10 cm / second to 40 cm / second during an interval during which the clock time changes by 3 seconds, then what is the average rate of change of its velocity with respect to clock time during this interval?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

A= 30 cm/s B=3 s

Average Rate= 10 cm/s

good but the units of your result aren't right

• If the average rate at which position changes with respect to clock time is 5 cm / second, and if the clock time changes by 10 seconds, by how much does the position change?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

A=5 cm/s B=10 s

Average Rate= 0.5 cm/s

your calculation is an average rate divided by a time interval, which doesn't usually give you an average rate of change of any quantity

• You will be expected hereafter to know and apply, in a variety of contexts, the definition given in this question. You need to know this definition word for word. If you try to apply the definition without using all the words it is going to cost you time and it will very likely diminish your performance. Briefly explain how you will ensure that you remember this definition.

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

I will remember this definition by always writing down the formula for rate of change when I do a problem that requires it until I have memorized it.

#$&*

• You are asked in this exercise to apply the definition, and given a general procedure for doing so. Briefly outline the procedure for applying this definition, and briefly explain how you will remember to apply this procedure.

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

writing change in a / change in b

Good. You are reasoning from the definitions. However you do have a couple of errors, and should submit a revision as indicated below.
