The Apollo 11 Crew left Earth for the moon on July 16, 1969, at 9:32 a.m. in a Saturn V rocket. They experienced forces of about 1.2g at liftoff and reached a maximum force of about 3.9g. The g-force is measured in Newtons defined as IN = kg(m/s ). Let F = p(h) represent the force of pressure in Newtons, p on the astronauts at a height h, in meters. Explain what each of the following quantities mean in relation to the astronauts. Give units for the quantities in Newtons. A. p(500) = 3.2 B. p'(500) = 0.2 C. p'(h) = -1 5. A law firm pays a third-party to pick up confidential documents and deliver them to a shredding service. This cost, C. in dollars, is a function of the weight of paper, w. in pounds, that is shredded for each client's case, such that C = f(w). Describe the meaning of each quantity. A. f(65) = 45 B. '(80) = 1.25 C. [f-'(200)]' =2.5 6. When a patient is prescribed an antibiotic to fight off infection, the dose. D. in milligrams is a function of the patient's weight, in pounds. Let D = /(w) define the dosage. Interpret the meaning of each statement. A. (135) = 120 B. '(135) = 2.5 C. Estimate the dosage for a person weighing 140 pounds
