Example 1
Let s(t) be a position function with velocity function v(t) = s'(t).
(a) If s(9) = 4 and , what is s(12)?
(b) If s(3) = -2 and , what is s(5)?
Example 2
A koala is climbing up and down its tree with velocity v(t) feet per minute, where positive values of v(t) indicate the koala is climbing up the tree.
At t = 0 minutes the koala is 5 feet above ground.
(a) If feet, how high is the koala after t = 4 minutes?
(b) If feet, how high is the koala at t = 7 minutes (use part (a))?
Example 3
A hummingbird flies away from its feeder with velocity v(t) feet per second and position s(t) feet away from its feeder.
(a) If s(4) = 5 feet and feet, find the hummingbird's distance from the feeder at time t = 0.
(b) If s(10) = 16 feet and feet, find s(5).
Example 4
Let s(t) be a position function with velocity function v(t) = s'(t).
(a) If and s(9) = -3, what is s(8)?
(b) If and s(7) = -4, what is s(3)?
(c) Given (a) and (b), what is ?
(d) Given (a) and (b), what is ?
Example 5
Let s(t) be a position function with velocity function v(t) = s'(t).
(a) If s(2) = 7 and s(9) = 13, what is ?
(b) If s(2) = 13 and s(9) = 7, what is ?
(c) If s(2) = 13 and s(9) = 7 then what is ? (hint: one of the properties of integrals says how to change the limits of integration)
