11 During test drives, a sensor is used to record the number of revolutions per minute made by a
particular wheel of a vehicle.
(a) In a test drive, a car is initially travelling at constant speed but starts to slow down due to
engine malfunction. The total number of revolutions is recorded on every 1-minute interval
after malfunction. In the first n minutes, the total number of revolutions recorded, S n , is

given by Sn 54n 29  n .

(i) Show that the number of revolutions recorded in each minute after the malfunction
occurs, before the car comes to a complete stop, follows an arithmetic progression. [3]

(ii) The diameter of each wheel of the car is measured to be 61 cm. Show that the car travels
a distance of 21.7 km, correct to 3 significant figures, from the time the malfunction
occurs until it comes to a complete stop. [3]

(b) In another test drive, a truck was travelling at constant speed before it entered the roughterrain.
Before entering the rough terrain, the wheel was rotating at 486 revolutions per minute (rpm). After
entering the rough terrain, engine power increases the rate of rotation by 20 rpm almost immediately
at the beginning of each minute. However, at the end of each minute, friction slows the truck down
2
such that the rate of rotation is of that recorded at the beginning of that minute. The rate of
3
rotation of the wheel at the end of the the nth minute after entering the rough terrain is denoted by
vn rpm.

(ii) Explain why the wheel always rotates at a rate of more than 40 rpm. [2]
(iii) Given that the rate of rotation of the wheel was less than 45 rpm at the end of m minutes, find
the least integer value of m. [2]

12 The diagram shows a string that is unwound from a circle while being held taut. The curve traced
by the end point P of the string is called the involute of the circle. One of the major applications of
involute of circle is in designing of gears for revolving parts where gear tooth follow the shape of
involute.

Involute of the circle

A circle has fixed radius a units and centre O and the initial position of P is at a, 0 .

§ S·
The parameter T , ¨ 0 T ¸ , is the angle measured from the positive x-axis to OT in the anti-
© 2¹
clockwise direction, where T is the point on the circle such that PT is tangential to the circle.

(ii) At W, x increases at a rate of 0.3 units per second. Given that z xy , determine, in terms of a,

the rate of change of z at W. [4]
