- True or False? A. At point D f" is undefined B. At point F, f' = 0 C. At point A, the local maximum point f" > 0arrow_forwardAstronomy Use the result of Exercise 53 to show that the minimum distance (perihelion) from the sun to the planet is r=a1e and the maximum distance (aphelion) is r=a1+e.arrow_forwardHooke’s Law In Exercises 65-68, use Hooke’s Law, which states that the distance a spring stretches (or compresses) from its natural, or equilibrium, length varies directly as the applied force on the spring. The coiled spring of a toy supports the weight of a child. The weight of a 25-pound child compresses the spring a distance of 1.9 inches. The toy does not work properly when a weight compresses the spring more than 3 inches. What is the maximum weight for which the toy works properly?arrow_forward
