Lower Bound methods for the Shakedown problem of WC-Co compositesBasavaRaju Akula
Most mechanical components are subjected to cyclic loadings during their life time. Predicting the life of such structures and components is of vital importance. The safety margin of a structure against accumulated inelastic deformations play a critical role in design of such components. Direct method(DM) based on the bounding theorems proposed by Melans and koiter
provide means towards this end. According to DM, the original structural problem can be formulated numerically into a nonlinear programming whose solution yields the structure’s shakedown limit.
In present thesis, to predict the strength of Particulate Reinforced Metal Matrix Composites (PRMMC), the shakedown problem is modeled using MATLAB and solved by a nonlinear optimization solver Ipopt (Interior Point OPTimizer). To account for the phenomenon of material degradation, constitutive law of ductile damage has been integrated with the DM. Using such
approach, the strength of few PRMMC samples are determined and interpreted statistically. Few performance indicators have been identified from results, applying these indicators we investi-
gated the underlying factors that influence the strength of material.

• To date, this tool is scarce to the industry (similar to DER-CAM, Homer).
This thesis examines the factors used in valuation models for mortgage-backed securities. The author conducts a literature review of the main types of risks that affect MBS valuations, including prepayment, default, and interest rate risk models. The research methodology is then presented, identifying the key variables to be analyzed from MBS pools, including FICO score, geography, loan balances, and "perfect payers". Data is collected from various MBS pools and statistical analysis is performed to determine the explanatory power of the identified variables and how well they predict prepayment and default rates. The results and conclusions suggest that the hypothesized variables do help explain prepayment and default behavior and should be considered in MBS valuation models.
The team designed and built a working Stirling engine suitable for classroom demonstration that could run on solar energy. The engine uses a two cylinder inline "alpha" configuration. Through iterative testing and design refinements, the team was able to get the engine running using a handheld heat source. With more time, they believe the engine could be powered solely by solar energy as originally intended. The report documents the full design process, including initial concept selection, component design and fabrication, testing and design improvements made to optimize performance.

A = B = D > C = E
Adding the mass of the individual boxes in each stack we find 9M for cases A and D, 6M for case B, and 4M for
cases C and E. For stacks B, C, and E, the average mass of blocks in the stack is the total mass divided by two,
since there are two blocks: For B this is 3M; for C and E 2M. For stacks A and D the average mass of blocks in
the stack is the total mass divided by three, which is 3M for both.

OR
1 2 3 4 5 All All Cannot

Explain your reasoning.
A = E > C = D > B since the average of each stack is 4M = 4M > 3M = 3M > 2M by dividing the total mass by the
number of blocks in each stack.

Rank the magnitudes (sizes) of the slopes of the line at the labeled points.
OR
1 2 3 4 All All Cannot

Explain your reasoning.
Answer:
A = B = C = D. The slope of a line at a given point is given by the change in the value of the quantity represented
on the vertical axis divided by the change in the value of the quantity represented on the horizontal axis for a
small interval near that point. For a straight line, it doesn‘t matter which points you choose to calculate the slope
– you get the same value for all points on the line. More simply, the line has the same steepness at all points
along it.

Explain your reasoning.
Answer:
C = D > B = E > A. The slope of a graph is given by the rise divided by the run. Lines C and D rise 2 units over a
run of 4 units, giving a slope of 0.5. Lines B and E rise 1 unit over a run of 4 units and have a slope of 0.25. Line
A has no rise, and its slope is zero.

Answer: D > A > B = C.
The magnitude of the rise of the graph divided by the run is largest at D (the line segment at D rises 6 units for a
run of 1 unit, giving a slope of 6), smaller at point A (the rise divided by the run is –6/2, so the slope is –3, and the
magnitude of the slope is 3), and smallest at B and C (the slope for the line segment that B and C are on has a
rise of 5 units over a run of 4 units, so the slope is 1.25).

Answer: D > B = C > A.
The rise of the graph divided by the run is largest at D (the line segment at D rises 6 units for a run of 1 unit,
giving a slope of 6), smaller at B and C (the slope for the line segment that B and C are on has a rise of 5 units
over a run of 4 units, so the slope is 1.25), and smallest at point A (the rise divided by the run is –6/2, so the slope
is –3.

Rank the slopes of the diagonals between the points marked with dots for these rectangles.
OR
1 2 3 4 All All Cannot
Greatest Least the same zero determine
Explain your reasoning.
Answer: B > A = C > D.
The diagonal line in case A rises 12 squares over a run of 8 squares, so the slope is 12/8 = 1.5. The diagonal line
in case B rises 9 squares over a run of 5 squares, so the slope is 9/5 = 1.8. The diagonal line in case C rises 9
squares over a run of 6 squares, so the slope is 9/6 = 1.5. The diagonal line in case D rises 8 squares over a run of
12 squares, so the slope is 8/12 = 0.67.
.

14. A1-WWT06: RECTANGLE—SLOPE OF DIAGONALS
In each case, a rectangle is drawn on a grid. A student makes the following statement in comparing the slopes of the
diagonal lines connecting the corners marked by dots:
―The steepness of a line depends on how much the line rises compared to its run. For Case A the rise is
9, and the run is 6, and the difference between rise and run is 3. For Case B, the rise is 8 and the run is
12 and the difference is minus 4. Case B has a smaller slope than Case A, and in Case B the slope is
negative.‖
Case A Case B
What, if anything, is wrong with this student’s statement? If something is wrong, identify and explain how to
correct all errors. If this statement is correct, explain why.
The student is determining slope by looking at the difference between rise and run, rather than the ratio. In
addition, the student is determining the sign of the slope based on this difference, rather than on whether the
horizontal change and the vertical change along the line have the same sign. In case A, the slope is +1.5, because
the ratio of the rise (9) to the run (6) is 9 / 6 or 1.5. In case B, the slope is +0.67, because the ratio of the rise (8)
to the run (12) is 8 / 12 or 0.67.

Is the slope of the graph (i) greater in Case A, (ii) greater in Case B, or (iii) the same in both cases?
Explain your reasoning.
Answer:
The same in both cases. Each graph rises 2 units in a run of 4 units, so each graph has a slope of 0.5.

1 2 3 4 All All Cannot
Greatest Least the same zero determine
Explain your reasoning.
Answer: C > D > B > A.
The slope of a line at a given point is given by the change in the value of the quantity represented on the vertical
axis divided by the change in the value of the quantity represented on the horizontal axis for a small interval near
that point. For a curved graph like this one, the closer the points are that you use to calculate the rise over the
run, the more acccurate the value you obtain for the slope at that point. In the limit that the points are extremely
close together, the value of the slope is the same as the slope of the tangent to the curve. In this case, the slope of
the tangent to the curve is steepest at point C, less steep at point D, zero at point B, and negative at point A.

What, if anything, is wrong with this graph? If something is wrong, identify and explain how to correct all
errors. If this statement is correct, explain why.
Answer: The student hasn‘t used a uniform interval for the values on the y-axis, so the graph of the data is
misleading. Since the largest y-value is 14.0, we could choose an interval of 2 for the y-axis, and then a plot of the
data would look like:

The website owner makes the following statement about this graph:
―As you can see, this year our popularity has grown dramatically, and we look forward to continued success.‖
What, if anything, is wrong with this statement? If something is wrong, identify and explain how to correct all
errors. If this statement is correct, explain why.
Answer: While the number of hits has increased, the growth is hardly dramatic. The number of hits in December
was about 5085, and the number of hits in January was about 5040, so the growth has been about 45 hits out of
5000, less than 1%. The graph only makes the growth look good because the y-axis starts at 5030, rather than at
zero. There are sometimes good reasons for
starting a graph with a nozero y value for
the starting (the left most) value on the x-
axis, but at times this is also done
intentionally in hopes that people will
misinterpret the results (a trick known as a
disappearing baseline). If you are trying to
show a trend for small changes in an
overall value, one way you can avoid
misinterpretation is to show a ‗break‘ in
the y-axis values.
Better yet, make sure that people don‘t
misinterpret your results by pointing out

A1-WWT11: CAT MOVING AWAY FROM A DOG GRAPH—CAT SPEED
A cat is moving away from a sleeping dog along a Distance, meters
hallway. A graph of the distance of the cat from the dog
as a function of time is shown. A student uses the
equation rate times time equals distance to calculate the
speed of the cat at time 6 seconds:
Rate = distance/time = 16 m/6 s = 2.667 meters per
second.
What, if anything, is wrong with this calculation? If
something is wrong, identify and explain how to
correct all errors. If this is correct, explain why.

special case that the object (in this case, the cat) is moving at a constant rate and if it started from a position of
zero. Here, the cat started 8 meters away from the dog, and changes speed at time 5 seconds. In general, the slope
of a line is equal to the change in the y-axis quantity divided by the change in the x-axis quantity. To find the
speed of the cat at 6 seconds we can find the slope of the line at 6 seconds, which is the same as the slope of the
line segment from 5 seconds to 8 seconds: Slope = rise/run = (20 m – 12 m)/(7 s – 5 s) = 8 m/2 s = 4 m/s.

20. A1-WWT12: FILLING A CYLINDRICAL GLASS—HEIGHT OF WATER-TIME GRAPH
A cylindrical glass is filled using a tap with a constant flow rate of 4 ml per second. A student graphs the height of
the water in the glass as a function of time as shown:
Height, h h
Time, t Cross-
section
Perspective
What, if anything, is wrong with this graph? If something is wrong, identify and explain how to correct all
errors. If this is correct, explain why.
Answer: The graph is correct.
The volume of water that is added to the glass is constant per unit time. Since the cross-sectional area of the glass
is constant (a circle of constant diameter) and the volume is the area times the height, the height increases at a
constant rate.
.

21. A1-WWT13: FILLING TAPERED GLASS—HEIGHT OF WATER-TIME GRAPH
A glass is tapered so that it is wider at the top than at the bottom. The glass is filled using a tap with a constant flow
rate of 4 ml per second. A student graphs the height of the water in the glass as a function of time as shown:
Height, h h
Time, t Cross-
section
Perspective
What, if anything, is wrong with this graph? If something is wrong, identify and explain how to correct all
errors. If this is correct, explain why.
Answer:
According to the graph, it takes more time to fill the glass to the first mark than it does to the second, and that the
time it takes to increase the height of water one unit of height decreases as the water level rises. But since the
glass is wider at the top than at the bottom, and the flow rate (the volume of water added to the glass per unit
time) is constant, the time it takes to increase the height of water one unit should increase with height, not
decrease:

22. A1-WWT14: FILLING INVERTED TAPERED GLASS—WATER HEIGHT-TIME GRAPH
A glass is tapered so that it is narrower at the top than at the bottom. The glass is filled using a hose with a constant
flow rate of 4 ml per second. A student graphs the height of the water in the glass as a function of time as shown:
Height, h h
Time, t Cross-
section
Perspective
What, if anything, is wrong with this graph? If something is wrong, identify and explain how to correct all

Answer: According to the graph, it takes the same amount
of time to fill the glass to the first mark as it does to the
second, and the time it takes to increase the height of
water one unit of height is constant as the water level
rises. But since the glass is narrower at the top than at the
bottom, and the flow rate is constant, the time it takes to
increase the height of water one unit should decrease with
height, not decrease:

23. A1-SCT15: WATER STREAM—TIME TO FILL GLASS
Three students notice that the water leaving a tap and falling into a sink forms a stream that gets narrower
as it gets farther from the tap.
Andre: ―The stream is narrower, and there’s less water as you get closer to the sink. That’s why if
you want to fill a glass quickly you should hold it near the faucet.‖
Bela: ―It doesn’t matter where you hold the glass, it will fill up in the same amount of time. Water
doesn’t just disappear once it leaves the faucet—it has to go somewhere.‖
Carl: ―Actually, the glass fills up faster if you hold it near the sink, not near the faucet. Near the
sink is where the water is flowing the fastest.‖
With which, if any, of these students do you agree?
Andre Bela Carl None of them
Explain your reasoning.
Answer: Bela is correct.
As the water falls after it leaves the faucet, it is speeding up, and the stream is also narrower. These two effects
exactly compensate, and the flow rate is exactly the same. The amount of water you collect per unit time can be
calculated by taking the product of the area of the stream and the speed of the water, so if the water leaving the
tap has a speed of 20 centimeters per second and the stream of water there has an area of 4 cm
2
, then the flow
rate is 80 cm
3
per second. Further away from the tap, the speed might be 40 centimeters per second: we can
predict that the area of the stream of water at that point will be 2 cm
2
, so that we still have a flow rate of 80cm
3
per second. As Bela points out, the flow rates must be the same because the water doesn‘t go anywhere else.

second.

Time, t Cross-
section
Perspective
A student graphs the height of the liquid in the flask as a function of time as shown above and makes the following
statement:
―At first the flask is getting wider, so the graph increases quickly, then it gets narrower, so the height doesn’t
increase as quickly. Then, when the water reaches the neck, the flask stays a constant width, so the height
increases at a constant rate.‖
What, if anything, is wrong with this graph? If something is wrong, identify and explain how to correct all
errors. If this is correct, explain why.
Answer: The rate at which the flask is filling is constant, but the rate at which the height is changing depends on
the diameter of the flask. At points where the flask is widest, the rate at which the height changes will be slowest,
and the slope of the height versus time graph will be smallest. From B to C, the height is changing at a constant
rate, since the width of the flask is not changing, so the slope of the graph is constant. From the bottom to height
A, the width of the flask is increasing, so the height-time graph will have a decreasing slope as time increases,
and from A to B, , the width of the flask is decreasing, so the height-time graph will have an increasing slope with
time. The student is correct that the height will increase at a constant rate at the neck.

25. A1-WWT17: CARS AND TRUCKS IN PARKING LOT—STATEMENT
A student is told that the equation 3y = x represents the statement:
―There are three times as many cars as pickup trucks in the parking lot.‖ She says, ―The letter x represents the cars,
and the letter y represents the pickups.‖
What, if anything, is wrong? If something is wrong, identify and explain how to correct all errors. If this is
correct, explain why.
Answer: This statement is almost correct: x and y are variables in this equation, and as such, they represent the
number of cars and the number of trucks. (They are not labels for the cars or for the trucks.) For example, there
might be 50 pickup trucks in the parking lot, in which case we would expect 150 cars in the parking lot. If y = 50
and x = 150 (so that x represents the number of cars and y represents the number of trucks), then 3y = x is a
correct equation.

26. A1-SCT18: INCHES AND FEET—EQUATION
To express the relationship between inches and feet, someone writes ―12I = 1F.‖ Three students discussing this
relation state:
Amy: ―The letter I is used as a unit in this case. There aren’t any variables in this equation.‖
Bea: ―The letter I is a variable and represents the number of inches.‖
Cari: ―That can’t be right, because if I let I equal 12 inches, then I get 144 inches equals 1F. And there are
only 12 inches in a foot.‖
With which, if any, of these students do you agree?
Amy Bea Cari None of them
Explain your reasoning.
Answer: Amy and Cari are both correct. If I were used as a variable, then it would be a placeholder in the
equation for the number of inches, and F used as a variable would be a placeholder for the number of feet. Then
to show the equivalence between (for example) 5 feet and 60 inches, we might write 12F = 1I. But as Cari
correctly points out, the relationship as written is incorrect. If I is used as a unit, instead of as a variable, then it
is true that 12 inches is equivalent to 1 foot. So Amy would be correct. Unfortunately, we use the same symbol –
the equals sign – to represent the equivalence between a foot and 12 inches as we do to represent a true equality!

27. A1-WWT19: BOYS AND GIRLS ON DANCE FLOOR—EQUATION
A student is asked to represent the statement ―For every 5 girls on the dance floor there are 3 boys‖ using G to
represent the number of girls and B to represent the number of boys. He writes 5G = 3B.
What, if anything, is wrong? If something is wrong, identify and explain how to correct all errors. If this is
correct, explain why.
Answer: The equation the student has written is incorrect. There are more girls than boys on the dance floor, so
if there are (for example) 50 girls, we would expect there to be 30 boys. But if we let G represent the number of
girls and B the number of boys, and we substitute these numbers into the equation the student has written, we get
5(50) on the left hand side, and 3(30) on the right hand side, and 250 is not equal to 90! A correct equation to
represent this statement is 3G = 5B.

28. A1-WWT20: STUDENTS AND TEACHERS—EQUATION
A student is asked to represent the statement ―There are 42 more students than teachers in the classroom‖ using S
for the number of students and T for the number of teachers. She writes S = T + 42.
What, if anything, is wrong? If something is wrong, identify and explain how to correct all errors. If this is
correct, explain why.
Answer: This equation is correct, and there is nothing wrong. If there are (for example) 3 teachers and 45
students in the classroom, then there are indeed 42 more students than teachers. And if we let T represent the
number of teachers and S represent the number of students, then T = 3 and S = 45, and S = T + 42.

29. A1-WWT21: TEXTING AND COST—STATEMENT
A student is told that the equation 7y = 4x represents the statement ―For every 7 hours of texting I get charged 4
dollars.‖ She says, ―The letter x represents the number of hours of texting, and the letter y represents the number of
dollars I am charged.‖
What, if anything, is wrong? If something is wrong, identify and explain how to correct all errors. If this is
correct, explain why.
Answer: The interpretation the student has given for this equation is correct. Since for 7 hours of texting the
student is charged less than 7 dollars, we expect the number of dollars to be less than the number of hours. If we
let x represent the number of hours and y the number of dollars, and we plug these numbers into the equation,
we can check the meaning for 1 hour: x = 1, and the equation gives us 7y = 4(1), which leads to y (the number of
dollars) = 4/7, or 0.57 dollars (57 cents). Conversely, if we let y = 1, we find x = 7/4 = 1.75, meaning the student
can text for 1 hour and 45 minutes for every dollar spent.

30. A1-WWT22: LINE DATA GRAPH—INTERPRETATION
A student makes the following claim about some data that he and his y
lab partners have collected:
―Our data show that the value of y decreases as x increases. We
found that y is inversely proportional to x.‖
What, if anything, is wrong with this statement? If something is
wrong, identify and explain how to correct all errors. If this
statement is correct, explain why.
x
Answer: The interpretation the student has given for this data is incorrect.
While it is true that y decreases as x increases, this is not an inverse proportion; it is a linear relationship. An
inverse proportion relationship is one that fits the equation y = a/x, where a is some constant. That is, if x
doubles, y decreases by a factor of 2, and if x triples, y decreases by a factor of 3. If the y-data was inversely
proportional to x, then the graph would be a curve:

32. A1-SCT24: EQUATION I—SOLUTION
Four students solving a math problem obtain the following equation:
4 abx = cax + 2b
They want to solve for x, and make the following statements about what to do next:
Aubrie: ―There’s nothing we can do until we plug in numbers for a, b, and c.‖
Bayan: ―We need to get all the x terms on one side, so we should subtract cax from both sides.‖
Cherise: ―I agree, but first we can simplify. There’s an ―a‖ on both sides, and we can cancel them.‖
Didier: ―I agree that we need to get all the x terms on one side, but to do that we should divide by cax.‖
With which, if any, of these students do you agree?
Aubrie Bayan Cherise Didier None of them
Explain your reasoning.
Answer: Bayan is correct. To solve for x, you should isolate x on one side of the equation, and subtracting the
cax term from both sides is the first step to doing this. Plugging in numbers at this point as Aubrie wants to do is
tempting for many students, but is not the best way to make sense of the solution. It‘s best (especially in physics)
to avoid plugging in numbers until you‘ve solved using variables. Cherise suggests canceling a, but if we divide
both sides of the equation by a the 2b term becomes 2b/a, which is not really helpful and doesn not eliminate a,
and we cannot subtract a at this point. Didier suggests dividing by cax, but this leaves an x in the denominator of
the last term, which doesn‘t help. Following Bayan‘s suggestion, we can solve as follows:
4abx = cax + 2b
4abx −cax = 2b
(4ab−ca)x = 2b
x =
2b
=
2b
4ab−ca a(4b −c)

33. A1-SCT25: EQUATION II—UNITS ANALYSIS
Four students solving a math problem obtain the following equation:
4 abx = cax + 2b
They are not sure the equation is reasonable, and make the following statements about the units:
Alan: ―I don’t think this can work because the different variables should have different units, which
means the equation would be inconsistent.‖
Bri: ―I disagree; I think it could work if a and x are something like m and 1/m.‖
Chas: ―I agree with Bri, but only if c has the same units as b in addition to what Bri said.‖
With which, if any, of these students do you agree?
Alan Bri_ Chas None of them_
Explain your reasoning.
Answer: Chas is correct.
All of the terms—the one on the left of the equal sign and the two that are being added together on the right of
the equal sign—must have the same units for the relation to make any sense.

What, if anything, is wrong? If something is wrong, identify and explain how to correct all errors. If this is
correct, explain why.

A1-QRT30: FOUR BASKETBALL PLAYERS—MAKING TEAMS
Four basketball players have the following statistics for free-throws:
(a) Based only on their free-throw statistics, choose teams for a 2-on-2
basketball game that is as evenly matched as possible.
Explain your reasoning.
Amalie made 43 out of 53 free-throws, so her free-throw percentage is 43/55)*100 = 78.2%.
Beth made 14 out of 17 free-throws, so her free-throw percentage is (77/95)*100 = 81.1%.
Cami made 7 out of 10 free-throws, so her free-throw percentage is (61/80)*100 = 76.3%.
Diethra made 6 out of 9 free-throws, so her free-throw percentage is (58/71)*100 = 84.1%.
The most fair teams we can make are by pairing the player with the best free-throw percentage with the player
with the worst as one team, and the two other players as the other team. So one team would be Diethra and Cami,
and the other team would be Amalie and Beth.
(b) For the teams you have chosen (and again based only on their free-throw statistics), which team is likely
to win?
Explain your reasoning.
Answer: One way to decide this is to look at the total number of free-throws made for each team as a fraction of
the number of attempts:
As a team, Amalie and Beth made (43 + 77)/(55+95) = 120/150 = 0.8 or 80% of their free-throws.
As a team, Cami and Diethra made (61 + 58)/(80+71) = 119/151 = 0.788 or 78.8% of their free-throws.
Pretty close! Amalie and Beth do slightly better.

A1-SCT31: LARGE AND SMALL PICTURE—SIZE
Picture B at the right was made by enlarging
picture A on a photocopying machine. The A B
distance between point x and point y measures
1.4 times as large in picture B as in picture A,
and the distance between point x and point z
y
also measures 1.4 times as large in picture B.
Consider the following claims made by x z
students about the two pictures:
Andres: ―The distance from y to z is also x z
1.4 times as large in picture B as
in picture A. Picture B is 1.4 times as large in any direction.‖
Blas: ―The area of the triangle xyz will be 1.4 times as large in picture B as in picture A. Picture B is 1.4
times as large in any direction.‖
Cervita: ―The angle yzx is also 1.4 times as large in picture B as in picture A.‖
Daniel: ―The circumference of the circle in the upper-right-hand corner of the picture is 1.4 times as large in
picture B as in picture A.‖
Esther: ―The area of the circle in the upper right hand corner of the picture is 1.4 times as large in picture B
as in picture A. Anything you can measure in picture B will be 1.4 times as large as what you measure
in A.‖
Freddie: ―The length of the dart is 1.4 times as large in picture B as in picture A.‖
Genaro: ―The area of the dart is 1.4 times as large in picture B as in picture A.‖
With which, if any, of these students do you agree?
Andres Blas Cervita Daniel Esther Freddie Genaro None of them_
Explain your reasoning.
Answer: Andres, Daniel, and Freddie are all correct. Any measurement of length will be 1.4 times as great in
picture B as in picture A.
However, if there was a one-centimeter by one-centimeter square in picture A, its area would be (base times
height) 1 centimeter square. The same square in picture B would have an area of 1.4 centimeters by 1.4
centimeters or almost 2 square centimeters, not 1.4 centimeters. This is also true of a triangle, or a circle, or any
other shape: The area in picture B would be greater by a factor of almost 2 (1.4 times 1.4, or 1.96). We can check
using the formula for a circle: if the radius in picture A was 1 cm, then the area would be A = πr
2
= 3.14cm
2
, and
the same circle in picture B would have a radius of 1.4 cm and an area of A = πr
2
= 6.15cm
2
, almost twice as
much. So Blas, Esther, and Genaro are incorrect, since when the linear measurement increases by a factor of x,
any area measure increases by a factor of x
2
.
The triangles in the two picture are similar triangles, and so equivalent angles of the triangles are the same, and
Cervita is also incorrect.

A woodworker has made four small airplanes and one large airplane. All airplanes are exactly the same shape, and
all are made from the same kind of wood. The larger plane is twice as large in every dimension as one of the smaller
planes. The planes are to be painted and then shipped as gifts.
Case A Case B
(a) The amount of paint required to paint the planes is directly proportional to the surface area. Will the amount of
paint required for the single plane in Case A be (i) greater than, (ii) less than, or (iii) equal to the total amount
of paint required for all four planes in Case B?
Explain your reasoning.
Answer: Equal to or the same.
Since the larger plane is twice as big in every dimension, any feature of the surface of the larger plane will have
double the width and double the height of the equivalent piece of surface of the smaller plane. So the area of any
piece of surface of the larger plane is four times the area of the equivalent surface of the smaller plane. Thus, the
total surface area of four small planes is the same as the total surface area of one large plane.
(b) The shipping cost for the planes is proportional to the weight which is related directly to the volume. Will the
weight of the single plane in Case A be (i) greater than, (ii) less than, or (iii) equal to the total weight of all four
planes in Case B?
Explain your reasoning.
Answer: Greater than.
Since the larger plane is twice as big in every dimension, any piece of the larger plane will have double the width,
double the height, and double the length of the equivalent piece of the smaller plane. So the volume of any
piecelarger plane is eight times the volume of the equivalent piece of the smaller plane, and will weigh eight times
as much. Thus, the weight of four small planes is only half the weight of one large plane.

A student is told that 5 kg of pennies have a value of $20. The student has to find the value of the same mass of
nickels, knowing that a nickel has twice the mass of a penny. The student carries out the following calculation:
―$20 is 2000 pennies, and they have a mass of 5 kg. If I have the same mass of nickels that are each
twice the mass of a penny, then I will only have 1,000 nickels. That means I would have $50.‖

Three students are working on the following problem:
―If it takes 70 hours to dig a coal mine rescue shaft 300 feet deep, how long should it take to dig another
coal mine rescue shaft 1,500 feet deep?‖
The students make the following contentions:
Ally: ―Since it took 70 hours to dig 300 feet it will take five times as long to dig five times as deep, so it will
take 350 hours.‖
Bill: ―It takes them a little less than a quarter of an hour to dig one foot, so I get 349.5 hours, which almost
agrees with Ally, but I am not sure who has the right answer.‖
Clyde: ―The workers were able to dig at a rate of 4.29 feet per hour for the first shaft, so if they can do the
same for the second it will take 349.7 hours. So I think we all agree and the numbers only differ
because of rounding errors.‖
With which, if any, of these students do you agree?
Ally Bill Clyde None of them
Explain.
Answer: All three students are correct.
Assuming the same rate of digging, the new shaft is five times as long as the first shaft and should take five times
as long to dig. Five times 70 hours is 350 hours. Bill and Carl have simply done the same calculation in a
different way.

Explain.
Answer: 3200 pennies.
If 2000 pennies have a mass of n kg, then there would be 2000/n pennies for each kilogram, and 1.6n kilograms
of pennies would amount to (2000/n)(1.6n) = 3200 pennies.

pounds) so the weight per test is 0.25 pounds. The class has 39 students, so the instructor makes 40 copies of this
test. What is the weight of the paper that he brings to class on test day?
A student presented with this problem carries out the following analysis:
―To find the total weight of the paper in the tests I need to divide the 40 copies by the 0.25
test/pound, and that will give me 16 pounds.‖
The student’s analysis is wrong; identify the problem and explain how to correct it.
Answer:The student divided by the conversion factor when he/she should have multiplied since (40 tests)(0.25
pounds/test) = 10 pounds.

Answer: The vectors that are being added are placed tail-to-head, and the resultant vector points from the tail of
the first vector to the tip of the last vector added. If the direction of the vector is reversed from the way it is
initially given, the vector is written as negative.

52. A2-SCT08: ADDING TWO VECTORS—MAGNITUDE OF THE RESULTANT
G G G
Three students are discussing theG magnitude of the resultant of the addition of the vectors Aand B. Vector Ahas a
magnitude of 5 cm, and vector Bhas a magnitude of 3 cm.
Alexis: ―We’d have to know the directions of the vectors to know how big the resultant is going to be.‖
Bert: ―Since we are only asked about the magnitude, we don’t have to worry about the directions. The
magnitude is just the size, so to find the magnitude of the resultant we just have to add the sizes of
the vectors. The magnitude of the resultant in this case is 8 cm.‖
Cara: ―No, these are vectors, and to find the magnitude you have to use the Pythagorean theorem. In
this case the magnitude is the square root of 34, a little less than 6 cm.‖
Dacia: ―The resultant is the vector that you have to add to the first vector to get the second vector. In this
case the resultant is 2.‖
With which, if any, of these students do you agree?
Alexis Bert Cara Dacia_ None of them_
Explain your reasoning.
Alexis is correct -- the magnitude of the resultant vector will depend on the relative directions of the vectors that
are added, and could be any length between 2 centimeters and 8 centimeters. The drawings below show some
possible magnitudes.

The resultants are shown as dashed lines below, found by adding the vectors head-to-tail. For the vectors that are
collinear, the lengths can be found by adding the magnitudes of the vectors (or by subtracting them if they point
in opposite directions). For vectors at right angles, the magnitude of the resultant can be found with the
Pythagorean theorem. In this case, the resultant obtained from adding vector A: to vector A has length 6; to
vector B has length 5; to vector C has length 5 also (it is the hypotenuse of a 3-4-5 right triangle); to vector F has
length 4.24 (the square root of 18); to vector D has length 1; and to vector E has length 0.

Answer B > A > E > D > C > F.
The resultants are shown as dashed lines below, found by adding the vectors head-to-tail. We can find the
magnitude of the resultant using the Pythagorean theorem by finding the horizontal and vertical components of
the vector sum in each case. For case A there is no vertical component, and A+A is just the sum of the lengths, or
6. In case B, the horizontal component of the resultant is 6 and the vertical component is 3; so the resultant must
be greater than 6, and B > A. In case C, there is no net horizontal component, and the magnitude of the vector
sum is just the magnitude of the vertical component of C, which is 4, so B > A > C. In case D, the vertical
component is 3 and the horizontal component is 4, so the components and the resultant form a 3-4-5 triangle with
resultant length 5, and it is larger than case D. Finally, in case F, the vertical component is 3 and the horizontal
component is 2, so the resultant has length 3.61.

students are discussing the resultant vector obtained by adding these two vectors.

Amanda: ―Since these are vectors, we need to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the magnitude. In this
case, the magnitude will be the square root of 72. The direction will be downward.‖
Belle: ―Since these are vectors we have to find a direction and a magnitude. We use the vectors to
determine the direction, which is down. But to get the magnitude, we just add the individual
magnitudes. The magnitude of the resultant is 12.‖
Conrad: ―I think the direction is actually up. The resultant should add to these vectors to get zero, and since
these two point down, we need another vector pointing up.‖
Donald: ―The magnitude will be less than six. Each of these points down just a little, so the resultant will be
pretty small.‖
With which, if any, of these students do you agree?
Amanda Belle Conrad Donald None of them_
Explain your reasoning.
Answer: Donald is correct.
The resultant can be found by vector addition as shown here. The resultant 6
points down and is smaller than either individual vector. However, Donald
neglects to specify the direction, which is down as Amanda and Belle correctly R
point out.

In Case A, two vectors of magnitude 6 units are at right angles to one another. In Case B, four vectors, each of

the difference in direction between any pair of adjacent vectors is 30°.

If all vectors in each case are added together, is the magnitude of the resultant in Case A (i) greater than, (ii)
less than, or (iii) equal to the magnitude of the resultant in Case B?
Explain your reasoning.
Answer: (b) Less than.
In both cases, the horizontal components of the vectors will cancel, and the resultant will point straight down. In
case B, the vertical component of each inner vector is greater than the vertical component of each outer vector. If
we rotated these inner vectors outward so that they were at an angle of 45° to the horizontal, their vertical
components would become smaller, and the vector sum of the 4 vectors would be the same as the sum in case A.

Gesultants in these cases is to add the components. For example, to find J, we can add the x-
components of N , P, Q, and R: 3 + (–2) + (–1) + 2 = 2, and the y-components of the same vectors: 1 + 3 + 0 + (–
2) = 2. So if the tail of the resultant Jwas placed at the origin, the head would be at (2, 2) and the
Gdirection of J
is the same as the direction of B. Following the same procedure, we find that the head of vector K would be at
(2, 2), again giving answer B; for vector Lwe get (0, 2) corresponding to direction A, and for vector M we get
(0, 2), again corresponding to direction A.

Answer: For K , we can add the x-components of A, B, C, and D : –2 + 2 + (–1) + 3 = 2, and the y-components
of the same vectors: 3 + (–2) + ( 0 ) + 1 = 2. Vector M is the sum of the same 4 vectors, and we will obtain the
same x- and y-components: 2 and 2 respectively. Using the same procedure, we get an x-component for Lof 0 –
(–2) + 3 + 1 = 6 and a y-component of –3 – (–3) + (–2) +0 = –2. The x-component of N is 0 – (–2) – 3 + 1 = 0
and the y-component is 3 – (–3) – (–2) + 0 = 8.
