12th Maths Exercise 7.1 Samacheer Kalvi Question 1.
A point moves along a straight line in such a way that after t seconds its distance from the origin is s = 2t2 + 3t metres.
(i) Find the average velocity of the points between t = 3 and t = 6 seconds.
(ii) Find the instantaneous velocities at t = 3 and t = 6 seconds.
Solution:
(i) Given s = 2t2 + 3t
(i.e.) f(t) = 2t2 +3t
Now f(3) = 18 + 9 = 27 = f(a)
f(6) = 72 + 18 = 90 = f(b)

= 21m/s

(ii) f(t) = 2t2 + 3t
f'(t) = 4t + 3
f'(3) = 4(3) + 3 = 15
f'(6) = 4(3) + 3 = 15

12th Maths Exercise 7.1 Question 2.
A camera is accidentally knocked off an edge of a cliff 400 ft high. The camera falls a distance of s = 16t2 in t seconds.
(i) How long does the camera fall before it hits the ground?
(ii) What is the average velocity with which the camera falls during the last 2 seconds?
(iii) What is the instantaneous velocity of the camera when it hits the ground?
Solution:
(i) s = 16t2
16t2 = 400

t = 5sec

(ii) Last 2 seconds means t = 3 to t = 5
f(t) = 16t2
f(3) = 16(9) = 144 = f(a)
f(5) = 16(25) = 400 = f(b)

= 128 ft/sec

(iii) f(t) = 2
f'(t) = 32t
f'(t) at t = 5 = 32(5)
= 160 ft/sec

12 Maths Samacheer Kalvi Solutions Question 3.
A particle moves along a line according to the law s(t) = 2t3 – 9t2 + 12t – 4, where t ≥ 0.
(i) At what times the particle changes direction?
(ii) Find the total distance travelled by the particle in the first 4 seconds.
(iii) Find the particle’s acceleration each time the velocity is zero.
Solution:
(i) s = f(t) = 2t3 – 9t2 + 12t – 4
V = f'(t) = 6t2 – 18t + 12
V = 0 ⇒ 6(t2 -3t – 2) = 0
(t – 1)(t – 2) = 0
t = 1, 2
When t < 1, (say t = 0.5)
V = 6(0.25 – 1.5 + 2) = +ve
When 1 < t < 2, (say t = 1.5) V = 6(2.25 – 4.5 + 2) = -ve When t > 2, (say t = 3)
V = 6(9 – 6 + 2) = +ve
So the particle changes its direction when t lies between 1 and 2 secs.

(ii) The distance travelled in the first 4 seconds is
|s(0) – s(1)| + |s(1) – s(2)| + |s(2) – s(3)| + |s(3) – s(4)|
Here, s(t) = 2t3 – 9t2 + 12t – 4
s(0) = -4
s(1) = 1
s(2) = 0
s(3) = 5
and s(4) = 28
∴ Distance travelled in first 4 seconds
= |-4 – 1| + |1 – 0| + |0 – 5| + |5 – 28|
= 5 + 1 + 5 + 23 = 34 m

a (at V = 0) is ‘a’ at t = 1 and 2
Now a (at t = 1) = 12 – 18 = -6m / sec2
a (at t = 2) = 24 – 18 = +6m / sec2

Samacheer Kalvi 12th Maths Guide Question 1.
A water tank has the shape of an inverted circular cone with base radius 2 metres and height 4 metres. If water is being pumped into the tank at a rate of 2mt3/min, find the rate at which the water level is rising when the water is 3m deep.
Solution:
We first sketch the cone and label it as in diagram. Let V, r and h be respectively the volume of the water, the radius of the cone and the height at time t, where t is measured in minutes.
We are given that \(\frac{d \mathrm{V}}{d t}\) = 2m3/min and we are asked to find \(\frac{d h}{d t}\) when h is 3m.

At noon, ship A is 100 km west of ship B. Ship A is sailing east at 35 km/hr and ship B is sailing north at 25 km/hr. How fast is the distance between the ships changing at 4.00 pm?
Solution:
Distance travelled by A in 4 hrs
(12 noon to 4.00 pm) = 4 × 35 = 140 km
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Maths Example Sums Chapter 7 Applications Of Differential Calculus Ex 7.1
∴ BA’= 40 km (140 – 100)
Distance travelled by B in 4 hrs = 4 × 25 = 100 km
Now in right angled ∆A’BB’, x2 + y2 = s2
Here, x = BA’ = 40 km
y = BB’= 100 km
⇒ s2 = 402 + 1002
= 1600 + 10000
= 11600
