MAT2500 21S [Jantzen] homework and daily class log

Jump to current date! [where @ is located]

This class is offered in synchronous online Zoom format.

Your homework will appear here each day as it is assigned, with occasional links to some MAPLE worksheets when helpful to illustrate some points where technology can be useful. [There are 56 class days in the semester, numbered consecutively below and  labeled by the (first initial of the) day of the week.]

It is your responsibility to check homework here (not all problems are in WebAssign). (Put a favorite in your browser to the class homepage.) You are responsible for any hyperlinked material here as well as requesting any handouts or returned tests or quizzes from classes you missed. Homework is understood to be done by the  next class meeting (unless that class is a test, in which case the homework is due the following class meeting). WebAssign "deadlines" are at 11:59pm of the day they are due, allowing you to complete problems you have trouble with after class discussion. [If Friday is quiz day, HW due Friday has a WebAssign deadline of midnight Monday.] Red numbered problems are a relic of the old online HW hints that are now superceded by the e-book addons. The extension tool can be used to request more time or more attempts for a given homework assignment, so persistence can give any student 100 percent credit on the homework cumulative grade.

*asterisk marked problems are to be done with MAPLE as explained in the separate but still tentative MAPLE homework log, which will be edited as we go.


Textbook technology: WebAssign homework management/grading is required, giving you access to an incredible wealth of multimedia tools together with the online e-book textbook you can access from any internet connection.
Problems which are not available in WebAssign will be red double square bracketed [[...]]
and must be done outside of WebAssign. Check this homework log page for hints and some linked Maple worksheet solutions.

  1. M (January 25, 2021): Introduction and Overview
    Lecture Notes12.1 rectangular coordinate systems, distance formula, spheres (and course intro) (review by reading section);

    Here is an (ignorable) example of a problem [Stewart 12.1.46] embedded in 3d space but quickly reduced to a Calc 2 volume of revolution problem:
    hand solution [ s12-1-46.pdf], [notice how different the hand written and Maple typeset formatting of the solution]
    corresponding Maple worksheet solution [ s12-1-46.mw] and illustration of the problem. All you have to do for such solution worksheets in the future is read them if you are interested. Don't worry, we will take it slow with Maple.]


    FUN (ignorable): Intro example motivating multivariable calculus: smooth riding on square wheels.

    You have a grace period of 2 weeks to pay for the e-textbook if you have not already done so in a previous semester.

    Make sure you read my welcoming email senta week before the first class, and register with WebAssign (immediately, if not already done). Explore the on-line resources. Read the pages linked to our class home page.

    Send bob an email as directed here within 24 hours so I can assemble a class list with your chosen nicknames.

    WebAssign Problems: WebAssign101 is a very quick intro to WebAssign due Wednesday midnight. Some of you have already done this.
    Read 12.1 reviewing 3d Cartesian coordinate systems, distance formula and equations of spheres;
    and  also due Wednesday midnight so you can ask questions in class if necessary:
    12.1: 11, 15, 17, 23, 45 (WebAssign has random numbers in your problem, solved above for the textbook numbers);
    This short list is so you can check out our class website and read about the course rules, advice, bob FAQ, etc. It is important that you read the section in the book from which homework problems have been selected before attempting them.

    Download Maple 2020 
    if you haven't already done so and install it on your laptop when you get a chance (it takes about 15 minutes or less total), If you have any trouble, email me with an explanation of the errors.
    You are expected to be able to use Maple on your laptop when needed. We will develop the experience as we go. No problem if you never used it before.

  2. W: Lecture Notes12.2a vectors;
    look over the  handout on diff/int/algebra;   short intro to Maple;  "Ask your Teacher" "Request Extension';
    Problems which are not available in WebAssign will be red  square bracketed [[...]] and should be done outside of WebAssign but not turned in.
     
    [[Read this 12.1:  21a hint: show the distance from P1 to M is the same as from P2 to M and equal to half the total distance; this is the hard way with points and not vectors]],
    12.2: 1, [[2]], 3, 5, 7, 13, 15, 19, 21, 25, 29.   [Stop reading at Applications section, for tomorrow]

    Remember WebAssign vector input requires the Math Vector palette using boldface i, j, k notation. 

  3. Th: Lecture Notes12.2b plane vectors and trig;
    12.2: vector diagram problems in the plane [numbers for example 7];
    34 (draw a picture, express the components of each vector, add them exactly (symbolically), evaluate to decimal numbers, think significant digits),

    WEEK 2:
  5. M: SNOW DAY. sneak attack!

  6. W: Lecture Notes12.3b vector ops:  projection;
    motivation:  "orthogonal projection" visualization is a trio of vectors with the same initial point;
    handout on resolving a vector; [orthogonal >= perpendicular];
    and read this Maple worksheet: [using Maple (for dot and cross products and projection)];

    Lecture Notes 10.1 parametrized curves;
    detour: handout on parametrized curves [also]:
    [ignorable: textbook example curves: s10-1.mw (wow!)]   [parametrized curve tutorial];
    open these worksheets and execute them by hitting the !!! icon on the toolbar (then read them!);
    it is not very useful to try to draw parametrized curves based on what the graphs of x and y look like: technology is meant for visualizing math!;
    BUT REMEMBER, WE ONLY NEED TO WORK WITH SIMPLE CURVES.
    This detour now is because we want to describe equations of simple straight lines.

    10.1: 4, 9, 13, 17 [hyperbolic functions, Stewart 8e section 3.11: cosh2 x- sinh2 x = 1, recognition is enough],
    21, just for fun: [28 : jpg; it does not hurt to use technology if you cannot guess them all];
    33, [[37]].

    WEEK 3:
  9. M: Lecture Notes 12.5a lines and planes;
    handout on equations for  lines and planes [.mw]; vector equations rule!;
    never use the symmetric equations of a line: they are useless for all practical purposes!;
    12.5 (equations): 1 (draw a quick sketch to understand each statement),

    13, 16, 19;  24, 31, 41, 45, 51 , 57[.mw].


  10. W: Lecture Notes 12.5b points lines and planes: separations; [mw]
    handout on geometry of points, lines and planes (distances between);
    in these problems do not just plug into a formula: this is practice in vector projection geometry, we really don't care about the distance!:
    12.5: 69 (DO NOT PLUG into FORMULA, find point on line, project their difference vector perpedicular to the line as in handout),
    71 (find point on plane, project their difference along the normal) ,
    73 (find pt on each plane, project their difference vector along the normal);
    76 (Don't use distance formula; draw a figure, find a point on the plane and move from it along the normal in both directions to get a point in the two desired parallel planes, then write plane equations: mw),
    78 [.mw finding the closest points!] (find pt on each line (set parameters to zero!), project the 2 point difference vector along the normal to the parallel planes that contain them; ans: D = 2);

    26 [4 part problem, use parametric equations for part b)],
    check with bob if you have questions about any of these;
    for fun: 38 [what is the distance of a point from any coordinate plane?---what is the distance of the point (x,y,z) from the plane y = 1? [soln is ellipsoid]];
    optional: read section 12.6 only for fun, since we will be using quadric surfaces during the course so why not skim through this material quickly?
    in class we work together on 26.


  12. F: Quiz 3 on cross product, projection, eqns of lines, planes;
     Lecture Notes 13.1 vector calculus: space curves;  [cubic, cutcylinder];

    27
    , 33,
    43 [eliminate z first by setting: z2 (for cone) = z2 (for plane) and solve for y in terms of x, and then express z in terms of  x and finally let x be t; Maple can solve the pair of equations for {y,z} in terms of x];
    Maple assignments start (read these instructions): note asterisks *;
    [39*: refer back to similar problem 27: note that  z2 = (x2+y2) so you need to take the square root! plot the spacecurve and the surface together as in the template, adjust the ranges for the surface so it is just contains the curve and it not a lot bigger; clue: look at boxed axes ranges for the curve to chose your window for the surface; HINT: the template example is a paraboloid, this exercise surface is a cone];
    [12.5.57*: using the answer in the back of the book and this template, plot the two planes and the line of intersection and confirm that visually it looks right. Adjust your plot to be pleasing,  i.e., so the line segment is roughly a bit bigger than the intersecting planes (choosing the range of values for t)].

      (a · (b x c)) ' = a' · (b x c))  + a · (b' x c))  + a · (b x c')) ]].
    [product rule holds for all the products involving vector factors as long as you keep the order of factors the same in each resulting term if cross products are involved;  usual sum rules always apply]

    12 [hint: let x = cos(t), y = 2 sin(t) for the ellipse, then solve the plane eqn for z to get the parametrization, for one revolution of this ellipse;
     for the approximate integration, use the circled exclamation mark on the top line center of the  toolbar to stop Maple from going on forever, then make the integral inert selecting it in the input region and using the Format menu, Convert to, Inert Form. Then you can numerically approximate it no problem.]

    47 [twisted cubic: perfect square! (slightly different rescaling)], 49;

    in class if time: 1, 7, 15, 18, 21, 25, 29, 31, 33, 34a, 39, 53, 64;
    We try to do a split screen side-by-side Zoom (bob Maple screen)  and Maple (your screen)  exercise together with classifying critical points:
    14.7.12 [14.7.12-nocomment];
     then students work on the max-min word problem 14.7.52 in the breakout rooms:

  34. W: 15.1a: Lecture Notes 15.1a interated and Riemann integrals; [cross-sections; Riemann on rectangles]
    See Maple Tools Menu, Select Calculus Multivariate, Approximate Integration Tutor (midpoint evaluation usually best);
    15.1: 1 [do this problem using the Maple Approximate Integration Tutor in this template worksheet];
    [3, in class we do this problem together using the Maple Approximate Integration Tutor in this template worksheet, input x*exp(-x*y) etc];
    6 [midpoint sampling: (m,n)=(2,3), x along 20 ft side, y along 30 ft side: answer = 3600, edit worksheet for your red numbers or set up yourself],

    WEEK 10:
  37. M: 15.2 (Lecture Notes on double integrals, nonrectangular regions)  [bob example, [ex.4]]
    handout on double integrals [necessary to change order: visual1; visual2];
    explanation of supporting diagram for double integrals]  <<< this is important for communicating how you iterate a double integral
    5, 13, 15, 17, 23, 25, 27; 35, 39, 49, 51 [[ optional: 57, 59, read worksheet 70 ]].

    Keep in mind multivariable integration is really about parametrizing the bounding curves of regions in the plane or the bounding surfaces of regions in space (still to do), to set up iterated integrals, whose evaluation is just a succession of calc2 integrations, easily done by Maple. Setting up the integrals, Maple cannot do. This is your job. And to re-express their parametrization when needed to change the order of integration.

  38. W: Lecture Notes 10.3 on polar coordinate grid and curves;
    [detour on polar coordinates for integration in the plane (review from MAT1505)]; [polar graphing];[angles in all 4 quadrants!];

    [[ 67, Nephroid of Freeth: starting at θ = 0 how far does theta have to go for the sine to undergo one full cycle? i.e., stop at  θ/2 = 2 π ; this is the plotting interval ]];
    keep in mind that our most important curves for later use are circles centered at the origin or passing through the origin with a center on one of the coordinate axes (page 5 of today's notes), and vertical and horizontal lines, and lines passing through the origin, as in the handout examples.

  39. Th: 15.3 (Lecture Notes 15.3 on polar coordinate integration; [examples, poolFreeth];
    handout: polar coordinate integration examples: page 2;
    view this worksheet to understand how to draw an iteration diagram for polar coordinates;

    use the standard Maple expression palette icon for the definite triple integral of the constant function 1 to check the agreement of two different iterations with two different variables for the innermost integration step.
