Single Variable Calculus, Chapter 3, 3.2, Section 3.2, Problem 54

Suppose that a hot-water faucet is turned on, the temperature $T$ of the water depends on how long the water has been running.
a.) Illustrate a possible graph of $T$ as a function of the time $t$ has elapsed since the faucet was turned on
b.) Describe how the rate of change of $T$ with respect to $t$ varies as $t$ increases.
c.) Sketch the graph of the derivative of $T$.

a.)



b.) Suppose that the faucet and the heater is turned on simultaneously, the
initial temperature of the water is that of the room temperature (let it be $20^\circ\rm{C}$)
suppose that it lasts for 3 seconds until such time that the water starts conducting heat from
the heater and its temperature is increasing rapidly for 1 second from the interval $(3,4)$. After 4 seconds, the water stays
at temperature of the heater, let's say at constant $40^\circ\rm{C}$.
c.)

Why is the fact that the Americans are helping the Russians important?

In the late author Tom Clancy’s first novel, The Hunt for Red October, the assistance rendered to the Russians by the United States is impor...
