QUESTION 3
An object moving along a curve in the xy-plane has position (x(t), y(t)) at time t greater than or equal to 0 with dx/dt = 3+cos(t^2) 
The derivative dy/dt is not explicitly given.  At time t=2, the object is at position (1,8)

a.  Find the x-coordinate of the pos. of the object at time t=4.

integral of 3+cos(t^2)dt+1 from 2-4

= 7.133

b.  At time t=2, the value of dy/dt is -7.  Write an eq for the line tangent to the curve at the point (2,2)

y=8+dy/dx(x-1)
=
y=8+(-7/(3+cos4))(x-1)


c.  Find the speed of the object at time=2

speed = square root of (49+(3+cos4)^2)

= 7.383


d.  For t greater than or equal to 3, the line tan to the curve at (x,y) has a slope of 2t+1.  Find accel. Vector at t=4.

dy/dx=2t+1
d(dy/dt)/dt=-2tsint^2
d(dy/dt)
dt=(2t+1)(3+cost^2)+(-2tsint^2)(2t+1)
=2(3tcos16)+72sin16
