Past contests
-
Due 30 August. One point for the most creative and interesting curve drawn
with Mathematica's command ParametricPlot3D or equivalent in Maple or other
software. This should be
submitted electronically
both as a notebook/worksheet file and as a pdf.
Congratulations to
Graham Fletcher for a
double win
in the first round of contests!
-
Due 30 August. One point for the most informative one-paragraph explanation
expanding on material from the lectures.
- Due Friday, 12 October. This contest has to do with the "funky example"
we looked at in
Friday's lecture (5 October - see pp. 22-23 of the online version). What
is the formula
for this surface? What do the gradient and Hessian
matrix tell you about the
funky saddle point at the origin x = y = 0? Carefully
discuss the tangent planes and
the (3D) normal vectors at points near the origin.
Congratulations to
Sayeed Mehrjerdian for reporting on the
monkey saddle!
- Due Wednesday, 21 November. Use the transformation from spherical to Cartesian
coordinates and some tricky vector calculations to figure out the time of sunrise and
sunset in Universal Time (i.e., Greenwich Mean Time), as a function of
(co)latitude and longitude. Write a nice description of the calculation and
implement it in a spreadsheet.
-
Due Monday, 26 November. Learn all about one of the following coordinate systems:
elliptic; parabolic; bipolar. Show how to integrate functions over interesting
regions and find some practical uses for your favorite
coordinate system.
