A helicopter clocked him leaving home at a speed of 30 miles/hour. Another helicopter clocked him arriving at his destination going 45 miles per hour. In the mail, he receives a ticket for going 100 miles/hour. He contests the ticket in traffic court saying: "No one can prove I ever went 100 miles per hour." You are the prosecution's expert witness. What do you argue? Ans: His average speed was 100 miles/hour. By the Mean Value Theorem, there was a point in time during that one hour, when his instantaneous velocity was equal to his average velocity over the hour.

Values of the function p = f(t, h) are given in the following table. (The higher the value of p, the better the performance.)

What is the value of p(0, 25)? Ans: 0.46 difficulty: easy section: 12.1 11. A certain piece of electronic surveying equipment is designed to operate in temperatures ranging from 0° C to 30° C. Its performance index, p(t, h), measured on a scale from 0 to 1, depends on both the temperature t and the humidity h of its surrounding environment. Values of the function p = f(t, h) are given in the following table. (The higher the value of p, the better the performance.)

Describe the function p(10, h) and explain its meaning. Ans: The value of p(10, h) will first increase (as h increases from 0 to 25) then decrease (as h increases from 25 to 100). This means that when the temperature is fixed at 10° C, the equipment works best in low humidity, with optimal performance around 25% humidity. The performance will degrade severely as the humidity rises. difficulty: easy section: 12.1

The demand function for each mower is a linear function of p1 and p2. Market research shows that if the price of the push mower is increased by $40, then the demand for it drops by 6400 units, while the demand for the ride-on mower increases by 1200 units. On the other hand, if the price of the ride-on mower is decreased by $60, then demand for it increases by 3000 units, while demand for the push mower drops by 9000 units. Currently, the company is selling 142,000 push mowers at a price of $300 and 19,000 ride-on mowers at a price of $1200. Find the two demand functions.

( x − 2) 2 . Use the cross-sections f (2, y ) and f ( x,5) to ( x − 2) 2 + y − 5 explain why lim ( x , y )→(2,5) f ( x, y ) does not exist.

= 0 if y ≠ 5 , whereas f = ( x,5)

So, within any distance of (2,5) , one can always find points of the form (2,y) with y ≠ 5 and points of the form (x,5) with x ≠ 2 . In other words, no matter how close we are to (2,5) , there are points where f = 0 and points where f = 1. Therefore lim ( x , y )→(2,5) f ( x, y ) does not exist. difficulty: hard section: 12.6 92. Using the fact that y 2 ( x − 2) ≤ ( x − 2) 2 + y 2 for all x and y except ( x, y ) = (2, 0) , 2 2 ( x − 2) + y show that lim ( x , y )→(2,0)

y 2 ( x − 2) = 0. ( x − 2) 2 + y 2

Ans: We note that ( x − 2) 2 + y 2 is equal to the distance from ( x, y ) to (2, 0) . Using the given inequality, we see that, if u is any small positive number, then y 2 ( x − 2) = −0 ( x − 2) 2 + y 2

y 2 ( x − 2) ≤ ( x − 2) 2 + y 2 < u . 2 2 ( x − 2) + y

This means that the difference between ( xy− 2)( x2−+2)y 2 and 0 can be made as small as we 2

wish by choosing the distance from ( x, y ) to (2, 0) to be sufficiently small. By the definition of limit, we can conclude that lim ( x , y )→(2,0) difficulty: hard

(b) If the ant moves in this direction at a speed of 6 units per second, what is the rate of change of height of the ant? Ans: (a) In order to move in the direction of greatest ascent and stay on the graph of f(x, y), the ant must walk along the tangent vector to the graph at this point with the   same i and j components as the gradient vector. Calculating the gradient, we get      2i − j , so the vector we are trying to find is of the form 2i − j + ak for some scalar a. To calculate a, we use the fact that any tangent vector to the surface must be perpendicular to the normal vector to the surface at this point. The normal vector at    this point is 2i − j − k , so taking the dot product of these vectors, we get 4 + 1 - a    = 0. Therefore the ant must move in the direction of 2i − j + 5k . (b) The velocity vector of the ant points in the direction the ant is moving which    is 2i − j + 5k . The magnitude of the velocity vector is 6, so the velocity vector of    6 the ant will be 2i − j + 5k ).

The function f ( x, y ) = e − ( x − a ) −( y −b ) where a and b are constants is sometimes referred to as a "bump function" and is used to construct functions which take on maximum values at certain points. Show that f(x, y) has a maximum at (a, b). Ans: Since fx(a, b) = 0 and fy(a, b) = 0, (a, b) is a critical point of f(x, y). To determine the nature of the critical point, we need to calculate the second derivatives. We get fxx(a, b) = –2 and fyy(a, b) = –2. Calculating the mixed partial derivatives, we get fxy(a, b) = 0.

Without calculating the discriminant, explain using the contour diagram for f ( x, y= ) x 3 + 3 x 2 y why f has a saddle point at (0, 0).

Ans: A saddle point P of a function f(x, y) is a critical point of f with the property that any open region containing P contains points Q1 and Q2 with f(Q1) > f(P) and f(Q2) < f(P). The contour diagram of f ( x, y= ) x 3 + 3 x 2 y has three lines which cross at the point (0, 0), so they must all be the same contour (in fact they are the contour f = 0). or undefined. Since This implies that the gradient vector at this point has to be f(x, y) is differentiable, it must be , and so (0, 0) is a critical point of f(x, y). To show the point (0, 0) is a saddle, we shall show that the function is positive at (a, 0) and negative at (-a, 0) for any value a > 0. Calculating, we get f(a, 0) = a3 > 0 and f(-a, 0) = -a3 < 0. Since this holds for any value of a, it follows that any open region containing (0, 0) contains points Q1 = (a, 0) and Q2 = (-a, 0) (choosing a small enough) with f(a, 0) = a3 > 0 = f(0, 0) and f(-a, 0) = -a3 < 0 = f(0, 0).

(a) The scariest point of the ride is when it is traveling fastest. For which value of t > 0 does this occur first? (b) Does the velocity vector of the roller coaster ever point directly downward? Ans: (a) We need to determine the speed of the roller coaster at a given time t. The speed is the magnitude of the velocity vector, so Speed = 900 cos 2 t + 900sin 2 t + 225sin 2 t = 900 + 225sin 2 t .

This takes its first maximum value when sin 2(t) takes it first maximum value, so t = π/2.

Two particles p1 and p2 are moving in the plane, with p1 moving vertically upward from initial point (0,0) and p2 moving around the unit circle x 2 + y 2 = 1 with initial point (0, 1) in the counter-clockwise direction. (a) Choose parameterizations for p1 and p2 so that the two particles collide at the point of intersection of their paths. (b) If the sum of the speeds of these two particles is greater than 3 at the time of collision, then the two particles combine to become one. Will this happen with your chosen parameterization? Ans: (a) There are many possible solutions to this question. As an example, we could (t ) 0,= y 2t / π for p1 and choose the parameterization x= = x(t ) cos( = t ), y sin(t ) for p2. With these parameterizations, the two particles collide when t = π / 2 . (b) The answer to this question depends upon the chosen parameterization from part (a). With the parameterization chosen, the speed of p1 is 2 / π and the speed of p2 is 1 when t = π / 2 .

Is something wrong? Ans: (A) Along paths C1 and C3, the vector field is perpendicular to the path. So the line integral along each of these paths is zero. Also, on path C4, the magnitude of the vector field is zero. So the line integral along this path is also zero. Finally,   along C2, we have F = 2 j and the vector field points exactly opposite to the     −(2)(1) = −2 . direction of the path. Therefore, ∫ F ⋅ dr = ∫ F ⋅ dr = C

(B) We cannot apply Green's Theorem to the curve C. It does not satisfy the orientation condition of the Theorem since the region has to be on the left as we move around the curve. This explains the difference in sign between the two answers.

19. Explain why it is impossible to give the Möbius strip a continuous orientation. Ans: A continuous orientation of a surface is a choice of normal vector at every point of the surface with the property that a “small change” in distance on the surface results in a “small change” in the normal vector on the surface. Assume that the Möbius strip M is orientable. Fix a point P on M and let C be a closed curve based at P on M which wraps once around M. Since the orientation is continuous on M, as we move along C, the chosen normal vector at any point cannot “jump” to the other side of the strip. However, once we return to P, the normal vector points in the other direction to the original one. This is absurd, and so the assumption that M was orientable must be incorrect. difficulty: hard section: 19.1     20.
