4)  Use the information from #3 to estimate the instantaneous velocity of the object at t = 5 and determine if the object is moving left (negative), right (positive) or not moving (zero).

Position of the object,s = t^2 +(72/t+1)

a)

Find the position at t = 5 sec

s1 = s| t = 5 sec

    =  5^+(72/ (5+1))

    =25+12

     =37

Find the position at t = 5.5 sec

s2 = st = 5.5 sec

    =  5.5^+(72/ (5.5+1))

      =41.33

Find average velocity:

v avg  =(s2 - s1) / (t2 - t1)

          = (41.33 - 37)/(5.5 - 5)

          = 8.654

Step 1 :

The position of an object is .

Instantaneous velocity of an object at image is defined as image.

Consider .

Differentiate on each side with respect to image.

image

image

Substitute image in above expression to find instantaneous velocity.

image

Instantaneous velocity of an object at image is 8.

Since the result is positive , then it is to be said that the object is moving right side.

Solution :

Instantaneous velocity of an object at image is 8.

Object is moving right side.
