WS Chapter 2 Derivative 6
A function is said to be differentiable at a point If the derivative of the function exists at that point.
If a function is differentiable, then the function must be continuous.
However, the converse is not true.

Suppose that a particle in rectilinear motion along an s-axis has position function s = f(t)
Therefore the average velocity of the particle over a time interval is defined to be
If is a given time interval
Then, we define the displacement or change in position of the particle over this time interval to be the difference between
its final and initial position coordinates
Displacement over the interval

What is instantaneous velocity?
For particle in rectilinear motion Average velocity – behavior over an interval time
Instantaneous velocity – behavior at a specific instant time
We define the instantaneous velocity of the particle at time to be the limit as of its average velocity over time intervals between

Example 1
Suppose that an object is released from rest (i.e. initial velocity is zero) from a building from a height of 1250 ft above street level. It is shown in physics with appropriate assumptions, the objects height s above the street level, t seconds after its release , can be modeled by
Verify that the object has not reached the ground at t = 5s, and find its instantaneous velocity at that time.

Another examples of application of rate of change are
An engineer might be interested in the rate at which the length of a metal rod changes with temperature.
An economist that might be interested in the rate at which production cost changes with the quantity of a product manufactured.
A microbiologist might be interested in the rate at which the number of bacteria in a colony changes with time.
To find the changes of height of water when the water spilled out from the tank at certain speed
etc
Slopes and Rate of ChangeVelocity can be viewed as rate of change i.e the rate of change of position with respect to time.
