Related rates are calculus problems that involve finding a rate at which a quantity changes by relating to other known values whose rates of change are known. For instance, if we pump air into a donut floater, both the radius and the balloon volume increase, and their growth rates are rela...
Related rates problem In a related rates problem, we are given the rate of change of one or more quantities, and are required to find the rate of change of one or more related quantities. For instance (as in the first example in Section 5.5 of Applied Calculus or Section 12.5 of Finite...
Don’t worry, we’ve prepared more problems involving related rates in the section below. These problems will also help you refresh some essential precalculus topics, so this will be a great practice for you too!Example 1 Samantha is walking home from her town’s library. Her distance from...

This study assessed the ability of university students enrolled in an introductory calculus course to solve related-rates problems set in geometric contexts. Students completed a problem-solving test and a test of performance on the individual steps involved in solving such problems. Each step was ch...
Related ratesONE OF THE most important applications of calculus is to motion in a straight line, which is called rectilinear motion.Consider a particle moving in a straight line from a fixed point O to a given point P, and let t be the time elapsed. Then to each value of t there will...

Section 3.6:Related Rates • Related-rates problems are exercises designed to illustrate the use of the chain rule. Varying quantities linked by some quantitative relationship give rise to "related rates of change." The calculus content of the typical such problem is minimal;...
