The world great sprinter, Usain Bolt recorded a short distance run of 9.58 seconds. Averagely, his
speed was 10.37 m s . Does this mean that he maintained this speed throughout his 100 m run?
To answer this question, we need to determine the changes in the running distance with respect

Differentiation helps us to study as indepth as possible the changes that happen to a certain

quantity with respect to another quantity. Differentiation can also be used to find the values of
