In an adiabatic process (one in which no heat transfer takes place), the pressure P and volume V of an ideal gas such as oxygen satisfy the equation p5V7=Cp^{5} V^{7}=C , where C is a constant. Suppose that at a certain instant of time, the volume of the gas is 2L, the pressure is 100 kPa, and the pressure is decreasing at the rate of 5 kPa/sec. Find the rate at which the volume is changing.

A boat is pulled into a dock by a rope attached to the bow of the boat and passing through a pulley on the dock that is 1 m higher than the bow of the boat. If the rope is pulled in at a rate of 1 m/s how fast is the boat approaching the dock when it is 7 m from the dock? Round the result to the nearest hundredth if necessary.
