`qNote that there are 9 questions in this assignment.

`q001. We see that the water depth vs. clock time system likely behaves in a much more predictable detailed manner than the stock market. So we will focus for a while on this system. An accurate graph of the water depth vs. clock time will be a smooth curve. Does this curve suggest a constantly changing rate of depth change or a constant rate of depth change? What is in about the curve at a point that tells you the rate of depth change?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

i believe it would be constantly changing rate of depth change

The steepness of the curve is continually changing. Since it is the slope of the curve then indicates the rate of depth change, the depth vs. clock time curve represents a constantly changing rate of depth change.

Your response did not agree with the given solution in all details, and you should therefore have addressed the discrepancy with a full self-critique, detailing the discrepancy and demonstrating exactly what you do and do not understand about the given solution, and if necessary asking specific questions (to which I will respond).

`q002. As you will see, or perhaps have already seen, it is possible to represent the behavior of the system by a quadratic function of the form y = a t^2 + b t + c, where y is used to represent depth and t represents clock time. If we know the precise depths at three different clock times there is a unique quadratic function that fits those three points, in the sense that the graph of this function passes precisely through the three points. Furthermore if the cylinder and the hole in the bottom are both uniform the quadratic model will predict the depth at all in-between clock times with great accuracy.

Suppose that another system of the same type has quadratic model y = y(t) = .01 t^2 - 2 t + 90, where y is the depth in cm and t the clock time in seconds. What are the depths for this system at t = 10, t = 40 and t = 90?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

t=10 the depth is 71, t=40 the depth is 26, t=90 the depth is -9

00:09:07

At t=10 the depth is y(10) = .01(10^2) + 2(10) + 90 = 1 - 20 + 90 = 71, representing a depth of 71 cm.

At t=20 the depth is y(20) = .01(20^2) - 2(20) + 90 = 4 - 40 + 90 = 54, representing a depth of 54 cm.

At t=90 the depth is y(90) = .01(90^2) - 2(90) + 90 = 81 - 180 + 90 = -9, representing a depth of -9 cm.

`q003. For the preceding situation, what are the average rates which the depth changes over each of the two-time intervals?

by subtracting each depth change and then divide to is rthe only way i could figure to do it

From 71 cm to 54 cm is a change of 54 cm - 71 cm = -17 cm; this change takes place between t = 10 sec and t = 20 sec, so the change in clock time is 20 sec - 10 sec = 10 sec. The average rate of change between these to clock times is therefore

ave rate = change in depth / change in clock time = -17 cm / 10 sec = -1.7 cm/s.

From 54 cm to -9 cm is a change of -9 cm - 54 cm = -63 cm; this change takes place between t = 40 sec and t = 90 sec, so the change in clock time is a9 0 sec - 40 sec = 50 sec. The average rate of change between these to clock times is therefore

ave rate = change in depth / change in clock time = -63 cm / 50 sec = -1.26 cm/s.

`q004. What is the average rate at which the depth changes between t = 10 and t = 11, and what is the average rate at which the depth changes between t = 10 and t = 10.1?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

1.79 is the average rate depth changes between 10 and 11, -.1799 is average rate 10 and 10.1

At t=10 the depth is y(10) = .01(10^2) - 2(10) + 90 = 1 - 20 + 90 = 71, representing a depth of 71 cm.

At t=11 the depth is y(11) = .01(11^2) - 2(11) + 90 = 1.21 - 22 + 90 = 69.21, representing a depth of 69.21 cm.

The average rate of depth change between t=10 and t = 11 is therefore

change in depth / change in clock time = ( 69.21 - 71) cm / [ (11 - 10) sec ] = -1.79 cm/s.

At t=10.1 the depth is y(10.1) = .01(10.1^2) - 2(10.1) + 90 = 1.0201 - 20.2 + 90 = 70.8201, representing a depth of 70.8201 cm.

The average rate of depth change between t=10 and t = 10.1 is therefore

change in depth / change in clock time = ( 70.8201 - 71) cm / [ (10.1 - 10) sec ] = -1.799 cm/s.

We see that for the interval from t = 10 sec to t = 20 sec, then t = 10 s to t = 11 s, then from t = 10 s to t = 10.1 s the progression of average rates is -1.7 cm/s, -1.79 cm/s, -1.799 cm/s. It is important to note that rounding off could have hidden this progression. For example if the 70.8201 cm had been rounded off to 70.82 cm, the last result would have been -1.8 cm and the interpretation of the progression would change. When dealing with small differences it is important not around off too soon.

`q005. What do you think is the precise rate at which depth is changing at the instant t = 10?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

71

confidence assessment: 1

You need to show the details of how you obtained your result, including your reasoning.

.................................................

......!!!!!!!!...................................

00:59:45

The progression -1.7 cm/s, -1.79 cm/s, -1.799 cm/s corresponds to time intervals of `dt = 10, 1, and .1 sec, with all intervals starting at the instant t = 10 sec. That is, we have shorter and shorter intervals starting at t = 10 sec. We therefore expect that the progression might well continue with -1.7999 cm/s, -1.79999 cm/s, etc.. We see that these numbers approach more and more closely to -1.8, and that there is no limit to how closely they approach. It therefore makes sense that at the instant t = 10, the rate is exactly -1.8.

i was way off and i had no ideal and it still doesnt really make since to me though

01:19:48

At clock time t = t1 the depth is y(t1) = .01 t1^2 - 2 t1 + 90 and at clock time t = t1 + `dt the depth is y(t1 + `dt) = .01 (t1 + `dt)^2 - 2 (t1 + `dt) + 90.

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

i dotn see a answer in that anywhere, i mean i get how to figure it out but i dont get the answer

self critique assessment: 1

The question asked for symbolic expressions for the depths at the two clock times. The given solution gives those expressions and clearly identifies them.

It could be that you don't understand what is meant by 'symbolic expression'. If that is the case your self-critique should indicate this, as well as the rest of the details about what you do and do not understand about every detail of the problem and the given solution.

`q007. What is the change in depth between these clock times?

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

u would just subtract but i didnt get the answer for the last one

confidence assessment: 1

.................................................

......!!!!!!!!...................................

01:22:40

The change in depth is .01 (t1 + `dt)^2 - 2 (t1 + `dt) + 90 - (.01 t1^2 - 2 t1 + 90)

= .01 (t1^2 + 2 t1 `dt + `dt^2) - 2 t1 - 2 `dt + 90 - (.01 t1^2 - 2 t1 + 90)

= .01 t1^2 + .02 t1 `dt + .01`dt^2 - 2 t1 - 2 `dt + 90 - .01 t1^2 + 2 t1 - 90)

= .02 t1 `dt + - 2 `dt + .01 `dt^2.

RESPONSE -->

t1-t1+dt

confidence assessment:

.................................................

......!!!!!!!!...................................

01:28:37

The average rate is

ave rate = change in depth / change in clock time = ( .02 t1 `dt + - 2 `dt + .01 `dt^2 ) / `dt = .02 t1 - 2 + .01 `dt.

Note that as `dt shrinks to 0 this expression approaches .02 t1 - 2.

i thought i had to subtract the clock times but i got it wrong but now i understand to find that is depth/clock time

`q009. What is the value of .02 t1 - 2 at t1 = 10 and how is this consistent with preceding results?

-1.8 well its has been usual negative that may not be it but thats what has happened in the past

confidence assessment: 1

......!!!!!!!!...................................

01:30:39

At t1 = 10 we get .02 * 10 - 2 = .2 - 2 = -1.8. This is the rate we conjectured for t = 10.

You need to provide much more detail about your thinking, and to address the self-critiques thoroughly. See my notes. Consider reworking this exercise and resbumitting it with more detail; it does not appear that you understand most of it well enough to build on in future assignments.
