TopicProduct & Quotient Rules
TypeFind derivative of product
DifficultyModerate -0.3 This is a straightforward application of the product rule combined with the chain rule for differentiating tan(2x). It's slightly easier than average because it's a routine 3-mark question requiring only direct application of standard differentiation rules with no problem-solving or conceptual insight needed.
Spec1.07q Product and quotient rules: differentiation

6 Oil is leaking into the sea from a pipeline, creating a circular oil slick. The radius r metres of the oil slick
t hours after the start of the leak is modelled by the equation
r = 20(1 − e−0.2t ).
(i) Find the radius of the slick when t = 2, and the rate at which the radius is increasing at this time. [4]
(ii) Find the rate at which the area of the slick is increasing when t = 2. [4]
