1. Distance and speed. Two medical students are traveling in a car that has
the odometer broken. To determine the distance they travel between 2:00 and
3:00 p.m, take the speedometer readings (mph) every 5 minutes.

hora ≥ 2:00 pm 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60
Velocı́metro(mph) 45 48 37 39 55 60 60 55 67 58 45 49 51

Use Simpson’s Rule 1/3 to estimate the total distance traveled by the students
during the hour in question.

2. Cardiac . When measuring cardiac output, doctors do not have a specific for-
mula C(t) to calculate the concentration of dye that passes through a patient’s
heart. Instead, data analysis methods are used. Suppose that 5 mg of dye was
injected into a certain patient in a vein near the heart and that measurements
were taken every 5 seconds in a period of 30 seconds, obtaining the following
data.

t(s) 0 5 10 15 20 25 30
C(t) mg/L 0 10 36 35 15 12 8

Use Simpson’s rule to estimate the integral

Z 30
C(t)dt

Based on this result. Determine the patient’s approximate cardiac output.

3. Approximate integration. Estimate the surface area of the golf it green

using the Trapezoid rule and Simpson’s rule.

f t wide and 50 f t long. The accompanying table shows the depth h(x) of the
water at 5 − f t intervals from one end of the pool to the other. Estimate the
volume of water in the pool using the Simpson 1/3 Rule with n = 10 applied
to the integral Z 50

5. Distance traveled. The accompanying table shows time-to-speed data a

sports car accelerating from rest to 130 mph. How far had the car traveled
by time reached this speed?. Use trapezoids to estimate the area under the
velocity curve, but be careful: The time intervals vary in length.

6. Wing design. The design of a new airplane requires a gasoline tank of cons-
tant cross-sectional area in each wing. A scale drawing of a cross-section here.
The tank must hold 5000 lb of gasoline, which has a density of 42 lb/f t3.
Estimate the length of the tank by Simpson’s Rule.
y0 = 1.5 f t, y1 = 1.6 f t, y2 = 1.8 f t, y3 = 1.9 f t, y4 = 2.0 f t, y5 = y6 = 2.1 f t
Horizontal spacing = 1 f t.

7. Oil consumption on Pathinder Island. A diesel generator runs conti-

nuously, consuming oil at a gradually increasing rate until it must be tem-
porarily shut down to have the filters replaced. Use the Trapezoidal rule to
estimate the amount of oil consumed by the generator during that week.

where e = a2 − b2 /a is the ellipse’s eccentricity. The integral in this formula,

sheets of corrugated iron roofing like the one shown here. The cross-sections
of the corrugated sheets are to conform to the curve

stretch the material, how wide should the original material be ?. To find out,
use numerical integration to approximate the length of the sine curve to six
decimal places.

16. Distance traveled by a decelerating airplane. A Boeing 737-200 airplane

of mass m = 97000kg lands at a speed of 93m/s and applies its thrust reversers
at t = 0. The force F that is applied to the airplane, as it decelerates, it given
by F = −5v 2 − 570000, where v is the airplane’s velocity. Using Newton’s
second law of motion and flow dynamics, the relationship between the velocity
and the position x of the airplane is
dv
mv = −5v 2 − 570000
dx
where x is the distance measured from the location af the jet at t = 0. De-
termine how far the airplane travels before its speed is reduced to 40 m/s by
using the composite trapezoidal method and composite Simpson method to
evaluate the integral resulting from the governing differential equation.
