#ATTENDANCE QUIZ for Lecture 1 of Math251(Dr. Z.) #EMAIL RIGHT AFTER CLASS (OR RIGHT AFTER YOU WATCHED THE VIDEO) THE EDITED VERSION OF #THIS .txt FILE (WITH YOUR ANSWERS) #TO: #DrZcalc3@gmail.com #Subject: q1 #with an ATTACHMENT CALLED: #q1FirstLast.txt #(e.g. q1DoronZeilberger.txt) #ANSWERS TO RANDOM FACTS IN THE LECTURE # A. ACCORDING TO Dr. Z. THE TOP THREE SCIENTISTS OF ALL TIME ARE: Archimedes, Newton, Einstein # B. WHAT BRANCH OF AI USES Multivariable calculs?:Deep Learning and Neural Nets are based on Multivariable calculus # C. WHAT IS THE "DISTANCE" IN SPECIAL RELATIVITY?: The "distance" in Relativity between two events (x1,y1,z1,t1) and (x2,y2,z2,t2) is sqrt ((x2-x1)^2+ (y2-y1)^2+ (z2-z1)^2- c^2*(t2-t1)^2) ##THE ACTUAL QUIZ: #1. Show that the triangle with vertices #P=[1,0,0], Q=[0,1,0], R=[0,0,1] is an equilateral triangle. #YOUR SOLUTION HERE (EXPLAIN ALL THE STEPS) # Step 1 is to use the distance formula to determine the length # Distance of PQ = sqrt[((0-1)^2) + ((1-0)^2) + ((0-0)^2)] = sqrt(2) # Distance of PR = sqrt[((0-1)^2) + ((0-0)^2) + ((1-0)^2)] = sqrt(2) # Distance of QR = sqrt[((0-0)^2) + ((0-1)^2) + ((1-0)^2)] = sqrt(2) #2. Determine whether the following two lines ever meet. #If they do meet, where? #r1(t)=[1,0,0]+ t*[1,2,3] #r2(t)=[0,1,0]+ t*[2,1,3] #YOUR SOLUTION HERE(EXPLAIN ALL THE STEPS) #The first step is to expand #r1(t) = [1, 0, 0] + [t, 2t, 3t] = [t+1, 2t, 3t] #r2(t) = [0, 1, 0] + [2t, t,b3t] = [2t, t+1, 3t] #The next step is to set the i, j, and k components of each vector equal to eachother #[t+1 = 2t, 2t = t+1, 3t = 3t] #The final step is to see if there are any solutions to the equation that are consistent. #[t = 1, t = 1, t = infinity] #The lines intersect at t = 1 because it works for all 3 equations.
